You have excellent taste, esobudynnhoj. It is a favorite of mine; I would like to order it but lack a proper place for it. If I were to suddenly see it here for sale then all bets are off. Unfortunately, I have never seen this one for sale here in Texas. It looks elegant, gorgeous and I hope the color on the photographs is true to life because it appears as a nice magenta. If one of your local nurseries carries Monrovia Products, ask if they can special order that camellia for you.

Alternatively, go to the link shown below... it will take you to a webpage in Monrovia's website with information about this camellia. On the left hand side of the page, notice a list of clickable bullet items. The last one reads 'Retailers for this plant'. Click on those words to be taken to a second webpage where you can enter your zip code and obtain a list of nearby local nurseries that do business with Monrovia and who could special order if they do not already stock this variety.

Here is a link that might be useful: Camellia Nuccio's Bella Rossa

I've been drooling over the Monrovia website for two years for this one. If you happen to find it, would you please post the location here? I am hoping to go to the Camellia Society's show in Mobile in a couple of weeks. I'd sure love to pick it up while I am there.

I bought mine in Charleston SC and I loved it soooooo much until it died when we moved it to Texas..... I am still unsure if it is dead or not I am hoping it will come back.... will keep you posted on that...
