Thanks, Jason.

I have a C. japonica 'Jury's Yellow', a midseason-bloomer (blooms in April), in the ground, for years. It gets protection, but I don't use any heat, and it does great. Just a few Wall o Waters, a rose cone on top, and some concrete blocks. Camellia japonicas prefer part shade. The only full sun this one receives, is in spring, before the big silver maple in my yard gets leaves on it. Camellias seem to enjoy growing under big deciduous trees, towering over them, as understory plants. You probably would have success trying a few Camellias, in or close to your woods.
I have several winter-blooming Camellias, kept in pots, because temps simply aren't warm enough for winter blooming Camellias, to flower here.

I set one of my spring-blooming Camellias, in the ground, this past season. I'll see if any of the flower buds set this year, open, next spring.
