Flowering begins in January/February and continues until March/April. This cultivar has double, light pink flowers.

    Pedoclimatic needs
    Highly appreciated for their beautiful winter blooms and magnificent foliage, they are suitable for parks and gardens, even small ones given their limited growth. Ideal for creating informal rows or hedges or even to be planted alone or in groups.
    It loves cool and humid climates preferring exposures to the shade or partial shade. The best exposure would be in the morning in the sun and in the afternoon in the shade.
    Camellias are very demanding regarding the nature of the soil, preferring fresh and well-drained soils with an acid or sub-acid reaction. The ideal soils for growing these plants are volcanic and siliceous, which are free of limestone. The soil must therefore be well-drained, with good aeration, with a high humus content and a pH between 5.5-6.5.
    These plants are however able to adapt to a rather wide range of pH that does not exceed the values ​​of 7-7.5. Camellias are fairly rustic plants that tolerate frosts up to -12°/-14°c. The cold does not cause damage to the branches and foliage but ruins the flowering. Snowfalls are very harmful, however, which damage the foliage by breaking the branches.
