 Camellia x. oleifera- I have resisted the idea of a "winter hardy camellia" for many years now. Hog wash and someone's idea to make money on us poor plant nerds. Cool ole nurseryman brought me one to see in person- omg it was so beautiful! Sent me off to the 'net seeking the truth. These camellias represent breeding work by William Acherman, retired from the National Arboretum in Washington DC after our Camellia collection was outright killed in 1980, except for C. oleifera. So the mad plant scientist played, and here we have these beauties to grace our Central PA gardens. My research found most are hardy to minus 20 degrees! It isn't the cold that will kill them, it is our clay PA soils. They absolutely must have well-drained soil or they will quickly drown. Try adding pinebark mulch to your soil for moisture retention along with drainage. Do not overwater! They do best in part to full shade, hmmmm....dry shade, always a challenge and here is something that will be well suited for just that!I still am nervous enough to recommend applying Wilt Pruf in early December. Some varieties are early spring flowering, some winter (Nov- Jan! imagine!!). All of our are in 3 gallon containers, $35.
