The Camellia is a gorgeous addition to any garden, and a highly popular choice for gardeners everywhere, and the Camellia Emperor of Russia is no exception! This stunning evergreen bursts forth with abundant double red flowers with yellow stamens in cooler months, growing 1 - 2 metres tall. They are one of the best plants to provide winter colour and flowering in almost any garden setting.

The Camellia looks delicate, but they are hardy once established and respond well to pruning to maintain a compact growth habit. Ideal for winter colour, specimen planting, large pot planting and can be pruned for hedging or natural screening.

Hardy to frost, moderately wind tolerant.  Most well drained soils; mulch in summer. Prefers partial shade, can adapt to full sun.
