Lemon Glow Camellia

The Lemon Glow Camellia is something very special – a yellow camellia. This dream, as elusive as the blue rose, has been realized with this lovely bush, whose pale lemon flowers have a wonderful formal look, modernized with irregular serrated edges on the petals. The large blooms arrive in winter or early spring, on an upright, tight column of beautiful evergreen leaves, making a stunning sight in your garden. Grow it in beds, as a specimen or near trees, and this variety has good winter hardiness and can be grown in a pot in cooler zones, or if you don’t have suitable soil in your garden.

• A true yellow-flowering camellia bush
• Blooms in late winter or early spring
• Dense, columnar bush
• Grows well in a pot or planter
• Grow in acid soil for the best results

Grow the Lemon Glow Camellia in partial shade – morning sun only is ideal. It also grows well in light dappled shade and on the north side of a building, under a blue sky. The soil should be moist, well-drained, rich and acidic, with a pH below 6.5. If you don’t have suitable soil, or you live in a colder zone, grow it in a pot with soil blended for acid-loving plants. In cold zones bring it into a cool, well-lit place for the winter months.
