Camellia tsaii seeds

Description

I am really impressed with its flowering vigour this spring and prolonged bloom time that lasted well over a month. All Camellia are gorgeous in my opinion.  Glossy thick dark green foliage. Why grow hedge laurel when you could have this densely leaved flowering shrub? I’ve grown plenty with great success and love them all.

How to germinate Camellia tsaii seeds:

Ready to germinate just give gentle warmth. I recommend baggie sowing it and pricking out the transplants when the root is 1-2cm long. Transplant into deep containers and give indirect light and warmth to continue growth. Seat in the garden after frost has passed to ensure continued growth. Mulch well and provide moisture until established.
