Camellia Nicky Crisp

Camellia Nicky Crisp Details

Camellia Nicky Crisp is a lovely, evergreen shrub that produces pale pink, semi-double flowers with golden anthers. These spectacular blooms appear in winter and spring and contrast well with glossy, dark green foliage. It is a relatively compact plant with an upright growth habit that typically reaches 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide. Best results with this plant are achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained soil that is slightly acidic. It is tolerant of cool and humid climates as well as moderate frost once established. Camellia Nicky Crisp 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. It is also well suited to being maintained in a container. For hedging space plants 50 cm apart.
