Description

Just as you might expect, Camellia ‘Swan Lake’ boasts ruffles of pristine white blooms that deliver the most elegant display during the cold winter months. The semi-double flowers stand out against a cloak of dark, glossy evergreen leaves, making this a spectacular specimen shrub for acid soils. With an upright habit, it is best suited to the back of borders where it makes a lovely backdrop for summer flowering plants. It will also happily grow in a large patio container, where you can position it close to the house to enjoy its beauty from the warmth of your armchair! Height: 3.5m (11’). Spread: 2.5m (8’).

Culinary note: The flowers can be used as garnishes but are also dried and then cooked in Asian cuisine. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow
Camellia plants require a moist, well drained, acid soil in a sheltered, shaded position. In areas where acid soil does not naturally occur, grow Camellia plants in patio containers using a mix of ericaceous compost and John Innes No. 3 and position in dappled shade.
More Info

Water regularly until plants are fully established. Where possible, use rainwater as the lime contained in tap water will reduce the acidity in the soil over time. Feed Camellias occasionally with fertiliser for acid-loving plants. Protect plants from cold winter winds and strong early morning sunlight, as this may cause the buds to drop in early spring.

Camellias will appreciate an autumn mulch to protect their roots from winter cold. Camellias require little pruning other than to maintain their shape. Lightly trim stems and remove faded blooms immediately after flowering.
