Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant in a fully shaded area with organically rich, well-drained, acidic soil. Dig a hole twice the size of your plant’s rootball, then backfill the soil and water to establish. Keep your Camellia roots cool with a thick layer of mulch.
2. Watering: Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Then, reduce the frequency once established. If you’re unsure when to water, poke your finger three inches down. If it’s dry, it’s time to water.
3. Fertilizing: Apply an acid-rich fertilizer after your Camellias bloom.
4. Pruning: Prune lightly to shape your Camellia after the growing season.
