Planting & Care

This evergreen shrub provides a lush, glossy green backdrop year-round, beautifully highlighting its vibrant blooms.
Showcases a striking mix of rosy-pink and lemon-yellow, with slightly ruffled, single to semi-double flowers blooming from March to May.
A low-maintenance choice, offering a dramatic garden presence without demanding much of your time.
Ideal for garden beds, borders, or large patio pots, thriving in partially shaded areas.
Pairs wonderfully with heucheras, hostas, and ferns in Japanese or woodland-style gardens.
As an ericaceous plant, it requires acidic or neutral soil to flourish.

Pest & Disease: Can occasionally be susceptible to aphids, vine weevils, viruses and petal blight.

Planting Time: September, October, November
Soil Type: Camellias are ericaceous plants, and so prefer a fertile, well-drained soil that skews on the acidic side. Use ericaceous compost for pot cultivation.
Spacing: Plant two metres apart to allow for spreading.
Watering: Keep your camellia well-watered throughout the first couple of growing seasons to help it establish, and during hot, dry spells.
Feeding: An application of ericaceous fertiliser in early spring will help give your camellia a boost throughout the growing season.
Pruning: Pruning is only needed to keep your camellia within its dedicated space, with any trimming being carried out post-flowering.
