Camellia Jean May

Camellia Jean May is renowned for its double, soft pink flowers. The flowers are mildly fragrant and produced through spring and autumn. The mid-green foliage is semi-glossy and complements the flowers perfectly as it grows to 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide. Camellia Jean May is commonly grown as specimen, clipped into a hedge, added to a mixed planting, used in cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or used as a backdrop for smaller plants.
