Camelia Japonica.
The Camellia Japonica is a densely branched evergreen tree or shrub with an elegant upright form and the most exquisite tropical looking flowers available in a huge range of cultivars.
Showy fragrant flowers can range in colour from pure white through to deep red and can be single, semi double, double, formal double or a full peony form depending on which cultivar. Between 7-10cm in diameter, they are produced in abundance from early late Winter and well into Spring bringing some well needed colour to the garden when all else has finished floweing or not started yet.
Glossy dark green oval shaped leaves contrast beautifully against these eye catching flowers. These trees are great for any garden as a statement plant whilst also perfect for containers bringing a beautiful tropical look. Hardy throughout most of the UK in an average winter.
