Care
Planting & Growing
Provide organically rich, well-drained, acidic soil. Keep roots cool with a thick layer of mulch. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency, once established. Prune lightly to shape and feed with an acid fertilizer after flowering.This is my 1st Pink-A-Boo Camellia plant from Monrovia and I’m so excited to have one growing in my yard. The pink blossoms and flowers are spectacular. I can’t wait to watch it grow and mature. Every plant that I purchase and grow from Monrovia haVe all been so pretty and healthy including this very special Camilla plant.
