Noteworthy Characteristics
Grace Albritton Camellia produces an abundance of formal double white or light pink blooms with a darker pink on the margins of the petals. The bloom is smaller, about 3 inches in size.
Uses
Grace Albritton Camellia is useful to create colorful, evergreen hedges or screens. It can also be "limbed up" to form an attractive, small, 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
