April Dawn Camellia Shrubs for Sale Online
April Dawn Camellia is part of the April Camellia Series developed to have improved winter cold hardiness and later bloom cycle than most other Camellia japonicas. These fragrant white flowers have red stripes that resemble peppermint candy.
It's one of the few Camellia japonica recommended for growing in USDA Zone 6, as far north as St Louis, Missouri.
April Dawn Camellia produces an abundance of fragrant, white double flowers with dark pink streaking set against a perfect backdrop of glossy, deep green foliage. April Dawn's upright narrow form lends well to smaller spaces where most Camellia japonica won't fit.
The unique variegation and bright color of these luscious blooms make for a stunning addition to cut flower arrangements!
