Camellia Curly Lady Details

Camellia japonica Curly Lady is an evergreen shrub that produces masses of double, red flowers from spring through summer. An interesting feature of this Camellia are its curly branches which host semi-glossy, green leaves. It is a relatively compact plant with an upright habit and typically reaches 1.5 m tall and 1 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 Curly Lady 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. For hedging space plants 60 cm apart.
