Uses
High Fragrance camellia has many uses. As a shrub, it can be used as a specimen or in straight or curved rows to form attractive, evergreen hedges and screens. It can also be "limbed up" to form a very attractive small tree which can placed in small groupings or as a focal point specimen. It is perfect for use as espalier: trained to grow flat against a 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
