id please: Requesting to identify this plant.
I tried searching for tree rose but am baffled by the stump size in image 1.
I don’t have higher resolution images.
The multiple colours look like some grafting was done.
Can someone pls explain in detail what we seem to have here and how this has been achieved.

Looks like some species of Camellia to me. Not rose.

nice bushy “Tree”… I agree with ..:  dense leathery leaves are that of  camellia… and flowers none too
clear seem to be camellia too….
    I want know this from you, please …. what state or country did you see this tree? what time of the year was it when you photographed this tree ?

I can’t get this ‘tree’ out of my head 🙂
.. – the pics are from a video extract shot in Hawkes bay, New Zealand of legendary biodynamic farmer Peter Proctor “One man,one cow,one planet”

did you take this video?  when? and do you know mr proctor? How does he manage Biodynamic farming in these modern days? DOes he still bury cow horns full of nutrition in the soil and develop  ‘ fertilizer’ as done in the beginning of biodynamic farming? Would love to know….

This woody shrub had the most magnificent flowers. Cultivated plant at Hotel City Forest Srinagar

One more shot of the plant

It could be Camelia species.

It does look like from some of the images available on google.

… you were lucky to have captured it. Have clicked lot in California but never in Kashmir.

Sir there is this Hotel City forest behind the UN office at Srinagar. We stayed there for a week. This was planted there at the front. I was so fascinated by this one like a lotus on a tree

May be Camellia japonica L.

Yes …, you are right.
