Thank you for posting photos of your collection Aly.
You've done very well to get such a good display of flowers from that Camellia in a pot!
Many of those plants would not survive the climate here in the UK!

Thanks George,

you are the one who encourage me to post some of my collection, indeed the weather is a fatal issue even here in Cairo specially for certain type, the camellia has been effected severely last summer as we had a lot of hot waves and I lost one plant of it but managed to continue with the rest, as for the bulbs i.e. tulip and hyacinth a lot of preparation during summer is required here like the chilling period of 12 weeks at the fridge otherwise no blooms but the rest is quite adaptable with the weather in Cairo.

thanks once more

Always admire folks who grow things in places like Balconies. Very clever really.
