Camellia japonica ‘Fiore Bianco’ Description

Camellia japonica ‘Fiore Bianco’ forms a bushy evergreen shrub with glossy, leathery dark green leaves and prominent white flowers from late winter into spring. The blooms are generally full and double, although plants sold under this descriptive trade name may show some variation in flower shape. Use it as a specimen in a partially shaded border, against a sheltered wall or in a container filled with ericaceous compost. Grow in fertile acidic soil that remains consistently moist but drains freely. Ireland’s mild, moist conditions generally suit camellias, but white flowers can be marked by persistent rain and late frost. Avoid early morning sun and keep the roots watered during dry summer periods when new flower buds are forming.
