Camellia lutchuensis

Camellia lutchuensis is an evergreen shrub that produces masses of exquisite, sweetly fragrant, single, white flowers from winter through spring. These spectacular blooms contrast well with the glossy, dark green foliage as it grows to 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide. Camellia lutchuensis is commonly grown as specimen, clipped into a hedge, added to a mixed planting, used in cottage or â€œwhiteâ€ gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or used as a backdrop for smaller plants.
