Camellia jap. Marie Bracey C10

Camellia japonica ‘Marie Bracey’ is a classic evergreen shrub prized for its large, peony-form rose‑pink blooms that open in spring against glossy, deep green foliage. With a naturally upright, moderate growth habit, it adds year‑round structure to borders and looks superb as a specimen in containers or near a sheltered entrance. Plant in partial shade where it is protected from harsh morning sun and cold, drying winds; grow in acidic, humus‑rich, well‑drained soil (use ericaceous compost for pots), mulch annually to keep roots cool, and water with rainwater where possible. A beautiful choice for Asian and cottage‑style gardens, low‑maintenance planting, patio containers, and even informal hedging or screening.
