Camellia
A lovely camellia with large, semi-double, dark geranium red flowers and compact, upright growth. This is arguably the best red camellia, flowering abundantly each spring. Ideal for a mixed border with moist but well-drained acid soil, the glossy, dark green foliage provides an excellent foil for other ornamental and feature plants.Position: partial shade (but not east-facing)Soil: moist but well-drained, humus-rich, acid soil (or ericaceous compost for container-grown specimens) Rate of growth: average Flowering period: March to May Flower colour: dark geranium red flowersOther features: glossy, dark green leavesHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: To prevent damage to the emerging buds and flowers protect from cold, dry winds and early morning sun. Water established plants in dry weather to prevent bud drop. Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser in mid-spring and again in June. Top-dress annually with shredded bark or well-rotted leaf mould. After flowering lightly trim or prune any branches that spoil the appearance of the plant. Protect container-grown specimens in winter by wrapping with bubble wrap or hessian |
