No reviews
$29.00
Delightfully fragrant and prolific in its flowering, this Camellia lutchuensis hybrid brings forth the best in fragrant camellias. Camellia 'Minato-No-Akebono' flowers are small, no more than 2” in diameter, yet the coloration is exquisite. The tones of pink soften at the petals’ edge with a defining tuft of yellow stamen gracing the center of the flower. Blooming fall through early winter, it is a great inspiration for the dark days of winter.

Plant Care
Tips for Success:
• Use fertilizer only at the beginning of active growth.
• Water when soil surface appears dry and then thoroughly saturate the root ball.
• Give partial sun year-round.
• Give 30-40°F nighttime temperatures during the winter. Warm nights during the winter time will cause “bud blast.” Up to 59°F is okay.
• Give a slightly acidic soil between (soil ph between 4.8 - 5.8)
• Pinch back young cuttings to get full and bushy growth, although this discourages flowering early on.
• 1 tablespoon of Epsom Salts/ one gallon of water given twice a year supplies their magnesium requirements.
