Striving to bring you showy, garden-worthy plants, we work to offer exceptional flowers, vigorous growth, cold-hardiness, disease resistance and one-of-a-kind Camellias. New plants include our own introductions from our breeding program, older varieties that have proven to have good qualities and recent introductions from other breeders. We try to offer Camellias that represent the wide variation in the genus from small and simple flowered wild type plants to the large and many-petaled hybrids.

SIZES AND PRICES

Camellias are quite variable in growth rate in pots. Slower growers may be smaller than the sizes listed but an approximate guide for ordering plants is as follows:

1 year old plants cost $10 to $15 and are 6 to 18 inches tall in 1, 2 or 3 quart pots.

2 year old plants cost $24 and are 18 to 30 inches tall in 1 gallon pots.

3-4 year old plants cost $50 and are 24 to 48 inches tall and bushy in 3 gallon pots.

We generally keep the Camellias in relatively small pots to avoid waterlogged soil and poor root growth. We strive to grow plants with healthy root systems which adjust well to being planted outdoors. I do not disturb the roots when planting unless a large thickened root has begun to circle in the pot; I have found that the many small roots rapidly grow out into surrounding soil and do not cause problems in later years.

Camellia X 'Blue Twilight'
Camellia X 'Blue Twilight'
Our Price: $100.00

CF 3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot. Tom Nuccio said this is the bluest Camellia he has ever seen, but there is no true blue Camellia available at the moment. This "Retic" hybrid has the large and spectacular flowers, large coreacious leaves and open vigorous habit of these plants. The semi-double flowers have the ruffled petals in a bluish pink color. In mid-season, 'Blue Twilight' blooms well in a protected location in Chapel Hill, NC or it produces plate sized flowers in a cool greenhouse. Hardy to USDA Zone: 7B Flower Form and Size: Semi-Double, Large Habit: Vigorous and Open Bloom Time (NC): March 10 year size: Parentage:

2 year old plant = 1 gallon pot.
In an effort to create a yellow Camellia my dad, Clifford Parks crossed C. flava with C. japonica and thought this seedling is worth introducing. The rose form double flowers are medium sized with light yellow petals. Compared with C. japonica the plant has narrower lighter green leaves with a long leaf tip. The growth is upright and very vigorous and makes an attractive plant. Other seedlings of this parentage do not show much tolerance of temperatures below 15°F. These hybrids do not appear to be fertile so work has begun on doubling chromosomes to work towards a hardy deeper yellow Camellia.

Camellia japonica 'Ashton's High Rise'
Camellia japonica 'Ashton's High Rise'
Our Price: $50.00

NEW! 3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot. This medium-sized rose form double flower is pinkish red. Dr. Ackerman, the originator, recommends this one for sites requiring a narrow, upright plant. The blooms open mi-season and the leaves are a deep dark green. Hardy to USDA Zone 6B Parentage: (C. japonica 'Billie McCaskill' X 'Variety Z')

Camellia edithae 'Hei Mu-dan' = 'Jinqu'
Our Price: $50.00

3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot.
'Hei Mu-dan' = ‘Jinqu’=‘Dongnan Shancha’. This one keeps on our nomenclature toes - but it's too beautiful to resist, regardless of the name! This Chinese cultivar has an exceptional bloom as well as beautiful foliage. The formal double rose-red flowers are produced in late spring (the end of March through April) and are quite heat tolerant. The dark glossy leaves have deeply indented veins and make the plant handsome all year long. The form of the plant is also excellent with compact and upright growth. I have found this to perform better with some shade.

Camellia X 'Yume'
Camellia X 'Yume'
Our Price: $50.00

3 year old plant =  3 gallon pot.
"Dream" (trans.) is a profuse mid-winter bloomer with single flowers and a spreading growth habit. The small flowers start appearing at the end of October and can continue opening until March. The petal coloration is genetic and very unusual: often the petals appear to alternate white and pale pink. A slight fragrance is present from the C. yuhsienensis parent. It produces seeds freely and I have had seedlings produce the same petal variegation pattern so it is a potentially useful plant in hybridization. (C. sasanqua 'Shishigashira' X C. yuhsienensis)

Camellia X 'Winter's Charm'
Our Price: $50.00

3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot. The lavender-pink flowers are semi-double to peony form and open in October and November. The plant is a moderate grower with a spreading bushy habit. (C. sasanqua 'Takara-wase' × C. oleifera 'Plain Jane') Hardy to USDA Zone 6A

New to me, this variety is described as a metallic red with semi-double flowers. The plant has vigorous upright growth.

Camellia japonica 'Tricolor'
Camellia japonica 'Tricolor'
Our Price: $50.00

3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot.
I obtained this as the original 'Tricolor' which should have three colors as promised by the name. Red, white and pink stripes are randomly mixed through the semi-double flowers. Typical of these candy stripe flowers, various expression of the colors allows multi-colored, solid red or white flowers to appear on a single plant.

Camellia X 'Tiny Princess'
Camellia X 'Tiny Princess'
Our Price: $50.00

3 year old plant = 3 gallon pot.
At its peak bloom this plant is covered with white shaded light pink flowers in great profusion. The miniature sized blooms are semi-double and appear early to mid season. This is a great landscape plant and the small leaves and willowy texture will contrast well with other Camellias. (C. fraterna X C. japonica.)
