Notes
'Fragrant Pink' camellia (Camellia 'Fragrant Pink') is a shrub for borders, specimen planting, hedges, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. This evergreen is fragrant and blooms in autumn, winter, and spring. Hummingbirds and birds visit it.
Pairs well with Foam flower, Japanese forest grass, and Christmas fern.
