Planting & Care

How to Grow and Care for Your Autumn Spirit Camellia

Planting Tips

Best Time to Plant: Fall or early spring is ideal for planting your camellia, giving it time to establish strong roots before extreme weather conditions.

Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil (pH 5.5-6.5). If your soil is alkaline, consider adding organic matter like peat moss or compost to improve conditions.

Sunlight Needs: Thrives in partial shade but can tolerate full sun with adequate moisture. A location with morning sun and afternoon shade is best.

Watering and Mulching

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant.

Mulching: Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Avoid direct contact with the stem to prevent rot.

Pruning and Maintenance

Pruning: Minimal pruning is required. If needed, prune right after blooming to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged branches.

Fertilizing: Use an acid-loving plant fertilizer in early spring to encourage strong growth and abundant blooms.
