Partial ShadeOften referred to as the Japanese Rose, Camellias are the first rose-like blooms we get in the late winter months. Camellias have lush, glossy evergreen foliage and velvety, symmetrical flowers that come in a spectrum of colors from pure white, blush pink, to rich reds. This plant’s ability to thrive in the chillier months make it a cherished addition for gardeners looking for year-round appeal.
Growing Tips:
- Sunlight: Partial shade is ideal, protecting the plant from harsh afternoon sun.
- Soil: Well-draining, slightly acidic soil is preferred for optimal growth.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods and the flowering season.
- Hardiness: Camellias are hardy in USDA zones 7-10, with some varieties tolerant of colder temperatures.
