Mrs Charles Cobb Camellia Italian Plants Description

Mrs Charles Cobb Camellia is a stunning evergreen shrub prized for its large, semi double to peony form flowers in soft blush pink, often with deeper pink accents. These blooms appear from late winter to early spring, providing a welcome burst of colour during the colder months. The glossy, dark green foliage of this Camellia remains attractive year round, making it an excellent choice for adding structure and visual interest to garden borders, woodland areas, or containers on patios.

Pruning Advice

Post Bloom Pruning: Prune lightly after flowering to remove any dead, damaged, or diseased branches. This will help maintain a tidy shape and encourage healthy growth for the following year.

Shaping: You can prune the plant to shape it, but avoid cutting into old wood, as Camellias regenerate slowly from older growth.

Deadheading: Deadhead any spent flowers to keep the plant looking neat and to conserve its energy for new blooms.

Further Information

Early Spring Blooms: The soft blush pink flowers bloom in late winter or early spring, providing a beautiful contrast to the often bare garden, and attracting pollinators like bees.

Evergreen Foliage: The glossy, dark green leaves provide year round interest and structure, ensuring your garden remains attractive even in the colder months.

Low Maintenance: Camellias are relatively low maintenance when grown in the right conditions, and this variety is no exception.

Versatility: Ideal for sheltered spots in partial shade, it can be used in borders, as an accent plant, or in containers. It is also well suited to more formal or woodland gardens.

Pollinator Friendly: The flowers offer early nectar for pollinators such as bees, enhancing the biodiversity of your garden.
