Camellia japonica ‘Professor Filippo Parlatore’ is a popular spring-flowering shrub, known for its stunning, double pink blooms that add a vivid splash of colour to gardens.

Camellias thrive in free-draining, acidic soil, enriched with organic matter like leaf mould. They perform best when planted in a sheltered position, away from harsh winds and strong sunlight.

Camellia japonica ‘Professor Filippo Parlatore’ produces large, peony-like pink flowers with a delicate fragrance, usually from late winter to early spring. This variety can grow up to 2 to 3 metres in height, making it ideal for use as a feature shrub or as part of a mixed border.

The Camellia Japonica Prof. Filippo Parlatore is a distinguished evergreen shrub celebrated for its stunning, large, semi-double blooms. These flowers are a striking deep red with a subtle, delicate sheen, making a dramatic statement from late winter through early spring. The lush, dark green foliage of this camellia provides an attractive backdrop for its vibrant blooms, enhancing any garden or outdoor space. With its elegant, compact growth habit, it is ideal for garden beds, borders, hedges, or as a statement plant in containers.

Where to Position Your Camellia Japonica Prof. Filippo Parlatore

Camellia Japonica Prof. Filippo Parlatore thrives best in partial shade, ideally shielded from harsh afternoon sunlight and strong winds. It should be planted in well-drained, acidic soil enriched with organic matter to support robust growth and flowering. This shrub is well-suited for shaded garden areas, woodland gardens, or mixed borders. Regular watering, especially during dry spells, will help maintain its vibrant foliage and ensure a beautiful display of flowers.

Growth and Maintenance

Camellia Japonica Prof. Filippo Parlatore grows at a moderate rate with a dense, rounded form. Minimal pruning is needed to maintain its shape and encourage healthy development. Light pruning after the blooming period can help remove any dead or damaged branches and improve the overall structure. Mulching around the base of the plant helps retain moisture, keeps the roots cool, and offers frost protection, ensuring the shrub remains robust and attractive.
