Camellia Lemon Drop

Camellia Lemon Drop is an evergreen shrub that features small, double, white flowers with a hint of lemon. These are produced from winter through spring and contrast splendidly with the glossy, dark green foliage as it grows to 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide. Camellia Lemon Drop 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.
