Notes
'Wilamina' camellia (Camellia japonica 'Wilamina') is a shrub for borders, woodland gardens, and pollinator plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes part sun and average to wet soil. This slow-growing evergreen has a columnar habit, blooms in winter and spring, and draws bees and birds. Deer rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Primrose, Bracken, and Great blue lobelia.
