Evergreen shrub with upright growth, featuring glossy, dark green elliptical leaves and rose-pink double blooms in spring.
Blooms appear from late March through May.
Ideal for container planting or as a focal point in garden borders.
Hardy perennial that is easy to cultivate, flourishing in acidic soil or ericaceous compost, in either full sun or partial shade.
Has a subtle fragrance.
Reaches a size of 3x3 meters.

Species: Camellia
Features: Winter interest
Flowering time: March, April, May
Flower colour: Ruffled, double rose-pink flowers
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Habit: An upright shrub with a bushy habit
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H5 - hardy in most places throughout the UK even in severe winters, -15 to -10°C)
Pest and disease resistance: Excellent; however, camellias can be at risk from petal blight. To avoid this, clear up any fallen flower heads as soon as possible.
Soil type: Well-drained, slightly acidic soil. If planting in a container, use ericaceous compost.
Pruning: Little to no pruning needed. If necessary, prune out any dead, diseased, damaged, or overcrowded shoots in mid to late spring.

Plant in autumn or spring in a sheltered position away from morning sunshine, cold, dry winds, and late frosts.
Ensure the soil is moist but well-drained and slightly acidic.
Mulch every few years to maintain soil moisture and acidity.
Keep well-watered through the summer, especially during dry periods, as this is when the plants produce next year’s flower buds.
Prune after flowering if needed, typically in early June, to avoid damaging late frosts and to ensure robust development of next season’s buds.
Protect roots from frost damage in cold winters by applying a good mulch of leaf mould in the autumn to act as insulation.
In mild regions, camellias are suitable for growing in pots and containers; re-pot every 3 years for best performance.
