Camellia Nobilissima

Camellia japonica Nobilissima *(AGM)

This beauty has stood the test of time as one of the first introductions to the UK and is still a very popular choice. An early flowering variety with masses of peony-form, white flowers with a very creamy, pale-yellow centre and glossy dark green leaves. It is one of the hardier varieties of camellia, so a good choice for colder areas and has a strong upright growth habit.

Eventual height and spread: 2.5-4m x 2.5-4m
Supplied height: 2L 20-30cm
