Noteworthy Characteristics
Prince Eugene Napoleon Camellia is produces gorgeous, fully double, cherry-red flowers 3 to 4 inches in diameter in late winter continuing through spring. Its glossy, dark green leaves and smooth gray bark make for a perfect background or tree form. No Southern garden should be without this Prince!
Uses
Prince Eugene Napoleon camellia is useful to create colorful, evergreen hedges or screens. It can also be "limbed up" to form an attractive evergreen tree that can be useful as a focal point specimen. It is perfect for use as espalier: trained to grow flat against a large, open wall.
Culture
Camellias prefer a fertile, moist but well-drained, acidic soil. Constantly soggy soil is a slow killer. Your new camellia should not need regular watering after the first year unless there are extended periods of dry weather during summer. Camellias do best in partial shade or filtered sun. Avoid afternoon direct sun
