Camellia Flower Drop

My camellias are approximately a foot tall. Of the three, one is producing a lot more flowers than the others, but they all seem to be dropping off. They drop after blooming and I don’t see any chew marks, so I don’t think it’s critters. I now just have pretty open flowers as a mulch – any ideas?
