Planting & Care

1. Planting: Choose a location with partial sun and some shade (anywhere from 4 to 6 hours of sunlight daily) and well-drained soil.

Dig your hole about 2 inches shorter than the depth of the root ball and 2 feet wider than the width. This will allow space for the roots to branch out and keep the top of the root ball above the rim of the hole. Place your shrub, backfill your soil and water to settle the roots.

If you’re planting in a container, select a pot that’s about twice the size of your Camellia’s shipped container, use organic soil and place it in a sunny area.

2. Watering: Always allow your soil’s surface to dry about 2 inches down before watering. When you notice that this area is dry, water until the soil is moist. For container-planted shrubs, water until you see it draining from the bottom of the pot.

3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your Camellia in the spring, after the flowers have dropped. Using a soluble fertilizer for acid-loving plants once or twice a month in spring and mid-summer is best.

4. Pruning: After your blooming season has ended, remove any dead or weak wood (a gray tinge to the bark is an easy way to identify dead branches). Thin out the growth a bit when your Camellias become dense. Finally, shorten lower limbs to encourage more upright growth.
