Camellia Limericks

A fabulous grower named Joe,
was grooming his blooms for a show.
He explained with a grin,
that these don't always win,
but it's not very often, you know!

There once was a nurseryman's daughter,
who disliked the camellias he'd bought her.
So one night discreetly,
she grafted them neatly,
just like her father had taught her.

There once was a judge named McGurk,
who drove all the others beserk.
He'd say with a grin,
"it's so easy to win."
"If you just let your wife do the work!"

A grower of camellias named Clyde,
could win shows whenever he tried.
He'd bring boxes of blooms,
that would fill up the rooms,
then he'd cart off the trophies with pride!

Now Hulyn is one of those guys,
whose blooms are enormous in size.
He's shy and he's quiet,
but he could cause a riot,
if you come between him and first prize!
