Camellia Bob Hope Details

Camellia japonica Bob Hope is a popular, evergreen shrub that produces medium sized, semi-double, dark red flowers from spring through early summer. These are set amidst the semi-glossy, green leaves as it grows to 2.5 m tall and 2 m wide. Best performance with this variety is achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained soil that is slightly acidic. It is tolerant of cool and humid climates as well as moderate frost once established. Camellia Bob Hope is commonly grown as specimen, clipped into a hedge, added to a mixed planting, used in cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or used as a backdrop for smaller plants. It is also well suited to being maintained in a container.
