Camellia's you could mistake for a rose if it weren't in flower so early in the year. These plants bloom from top to bottom.

From delicate lemony yellow flowers to rich red double dazzlers that burst open in spring on gorgeous glossy evergreen leaves. No garden or balcony should be without a camellia in the ground or in a pot - they even have a pot designed and named for them. 

Camellia have become such a garden favourite because for the remainder of the year you have glossy green foliage that resembles topiary.

Best space & place
Suitable for woodland and acidic soils. Position in a site sheltered from cold, dry winds and early morning sun as buds and flowers may be damaged by cold winds and late frosts.

When to water & feed
Keep camellias well watered in summer, between July and September, as this is when next year's flower buds are formed.

Need to know
Water camellias with rainwater if possible as hard water can affect the acidity of the soil.

For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.

Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in on a rounded pot.
