Planting Conditions

Camellia japonica 'Pink' like moist, well drained, acid soil in a sheltered position out of the wind. They prefer to be in dappled shade to full shade as the intensity of the sun can scorch their leaves. If you are planting a camellia in a container use a mix of ericaceous compost and John Innes No. 3.

Watering & Feeding

After planting, water Camellia japonica 'Pink’ regularly for the first year until it is well-established, only watering during dry spells thereafter using rainwater whenever possible. Water more frequently in summer during the months July, August, September as this is when the flower buds for the following year form; drought can prevent the buds from forming successfully. When the plant reaches four years old it requires less care and attention; only it is still wise to water in very dry conditions in the Summer period.

Camellias require no pruning in the first four years and subsequently little pruning thereafter. However if the plant does get too large for the space time back immediately after flowering in the Spring.
