Camellia japonica ‘Marie Bracey’ bears large, formal double, rose‑pink blooms in early to mid spring (typically March–April), set against glossy, dark green, evergreen foliage for year‑round structure.

Plant in moist but well‑drained, humus‑rich, acid (ericaceous) soil; also suitable for large containers with ericaceous compost.
