Camellia Spring Festival Camellias

Camellia Spring Festival AGM

 

Camellias are a winter luxury with extravagant blooms that bring essential evergreen structure and welcome colour at a time of year when our gardens are shrouded in short, dark days. Deep evergreen glossy foliage sets off delightful small rose-like shell pink blooms from March to April. From Asia and natural woodlanders, Camellia do best in shady conditions but avoid planting them where the morning sun will scorch any flowers that have frosted overnight. They absolutely must have acid soil and if you’ve set your heart on growing camellias, try them in large containers filled with ericaceous compost or improve the acidity of clay, sand and loam by adding well-rotted organic matter.

Happy and hardy in any decent well-drained acid soil in full or dappled shade, Camellia Spring Festival is both hardy and beautiful. Mostly trouble-free and low-maintenance, camellias offer superb evergreen structure and welcome winter colour to shady city, country, suburban, wildlife and Zen gardens. They thrive in large pots and containers on shady patios and are perfect for informal and formal spaces. 2.5-4m x 1.5-2.5m

Plant our young potted Camellia Spring Festival plants in full or partial shade in any moist acid well-drained soil away from niggling winds and planted where the morning sun won’t scorch any flowers that have frosted overnight, west or sheltered north are best. Avoid planting when the ground is excessively wet or frozen. Remember, shrubs can take several years to reach their ultimate height and spread depending on species so give it ample growing room.

A formal problem-free evergreen shrub that needs little pruning. Tidy it up after flowering if required by removing any wayward, dead, damaged or diseased stems. Deadheading is optional but helps keep the plant looking tidy.
