Features stunning, deep pink double blooms and serrated green leaves that provide year-round interest.
'Princess Baciocchi' combines elegance with ease of cultivation, making it a rewarding choice for many gardeners.
This robust camellia can be pruned after flowering to suit smaller spaces.
Thriving in partial or dappled shade, it's perfect for gardens without a sunny, south-facing aspect.
As an ericaceous plant, it pairs beautifully in raised beds with other acid-loving plants like blueberries and azaleas.
An ideal addition to Japanese-themed gardens, complementing acers, ferns, and bamboos.
