Description

Camellia 'Spring Festival' is an attractive, evergreen upright shrub of a compact variety, which can reach an approximate height of 4m and a spread of 2.5m at maturity. Its glossy, dark green foliage initially emerges with a bronze tinge, adding an interesting hue to the garden. In spring, this camellia produces beautiful small, pale pink double flowers that provide a stunning pop of colour to any garden.

This camellia variety thrives in moist but well-drained to well-drained soils and prefers a sheltered position in full shade to partial shade for optimal growth. Camellia 'Spring Festival' is perfect for adding a splash of colour to garden borders, woodland gardens, or as a container plant, enhancing any space with its elegant blooms.

AKA: Camellia × williamsii 'Spring Festival'

Planting Steps

1Preparation

  • Pot-grown plants can be planted at any time of year, whereas bare roots need to be planted between November and March.
  • Clear weeds and grass within a metre of the planting hole.
  • Dig a hole as deep as the root mass and twice as wide.
  • To help your plant establish more effectively, sprinkle Rootgrow in the hole.

2Planting

  • Gently loosen the roots and place into the planting hole.
  • Ensure the top of the plant's compost is flush with the level of the surrounding soil and the graft union or collar of the tree is above ground level.
  • Mix 50% of the original soil with 50% compost.
  • Fill in the hole, firming the soil gently.

3Last Steps

  • Water generously around the base of the plant.
  • If you are planting either a single stem tree or mature standard tree, we recommend adding a staking kit and rabbit guard.

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
