Camellia Ballet Queen is a beautiful evergreen shrub that produces stunning flowers from late winter to early spring. This variety has striking pink double blooms with ruffled edges that add a pop of colour to any garden.

Best planted in a sheltered spot with partial shade, Camellia Ballet Queen prefers moist, well-drained soil that is acidic. It is an ideal plant for woodland gardens or as a specimen shrub in borders, adding colour to the garden when little else is in bloom.

The shrub can grow up to 2.5m in height and spread, and can be easily maintained with pruning. Pruning should be done after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth.

Camellia Ballet Queen is a hardy shrub that is tolerant to frost, but requires protection from strong winds, which can damage its delicate flowers. With proper care and maintenance, it can be a long-lasting and beautiful addition to any garden.

This variety of Camellia blooms in late winter to early spring, usually from February to April, and can continue to produce flowers for up to six weeks. The flowers are 8-10 cm in diameter and bloom in abundance, making it a must-have for any garden that wants a splash of colour in the early months of the year.
