Description

A robust grower and beautiful in bloom during fall, ‘Pink Snow’ produces LOADS of shaggy double blooms with carnation-pink color petals that are sure to draw attention. Bright golden yellow stamens peek out from between the petals. The glossy, dark green foliage provides the perfect backdrop for the flowers. The flowers are excellent for cutting and display in your favorite vase.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 10 to 12 feet tall and about 8 feet wide, the Pink Snow Camellia can be grown as a large shrub or small tree. As a shrub it is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, or as a hedge or background plant in landscape borders and is especially nice as a corner plant or espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall) in home foundation plantings. As this camellia grows taller lower branches can be removed to form a very attractive and colorful focal point specimen tree for use in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. A fine addition to pink color theme gardens, Camellia gardens, Asian gardens, cottage gardens, cut flower gardens and woodland borders. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors during winter above USDA Zone 7a, where this variety is not reliably winter hardy. Find Your Zone

Suggested Spacing: 6 feet apart for a solid hedge; 12 feet or more apart for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Camellia variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

Camellia adapt well to various soil types however prefer a moist but well-drained acidic soil that is rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy soil is a slow killer. In general, Camellia grows and blooms better in partial shade with some shelter from the hot afternoon sun. Morning sun with afternoon shade or filtered sunlight is perfect. All-day filtered sun and evening sun is fine.
