Camellia

Camellia is a traditional English shrub. They are evergreen, bushy plants that flower over a long period of time. They thrive in acidic soil and can take partial shade. They do need protection from early morning sun and any cold winds to ensure the flower buds don't get harmed. If possible, from the middle of August they need to be starved a little of water which will encourage flower buds to form for next years flowering season
