Camellia 'William Bartlett'
Camellia japonica ‘William Bartlett’ is a handsome evergreen shrub with glossy, dark green leaves that stay fresh and vibrant all year long. From mid-winter into early spring, it produces elegant, rose-pink blooms that bring welcome colour to the garden when little else is flowering. These double blooms are generous in size and speckled with shades of darker pink for an eye-catching effect.
Caring for this Camellia shrub is simple. Plant it in well-drained soil or use ericaceous compost if growing in containers. Choose a spot with partial shade, sheltered from harsh morning sun and frost, to protect the buds and flowers. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells, and feed with an ericaceous fertiliser in spring. Compact and fully hardy, it’s a versatile shrub that looks just as good in a pot on the patio as it does planted directly into the ground.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
