Pretty as a picture! The camellia 'Bonomiana' (Camellia japonica) is just slightly different. And we love that! The light pink flowers have dark red stripes in a random pattern. The flowers bloom at the end of the winter. The plant is evergreen. Enjoy the glossy green leaves all year round.
You can shape the branches extremely well in the spring, after it blooms. You can also drastically cut it back if the bush is too big. The next year, the japonica may have fewer flowers. The amount of sunlight doesn't matter for the Camellia. The shrub prefers well-drained soil. Water it more during dry periods.
