Description
This might just be the lowest growing Camellia we’ve ever grown in our gardens. With just a little pruning, Sarrel can be kept to under 2 feet in height with branches that spread across the ground more like a groundcover plant than a shrub. In fall, she produces a profusion of beautiful anemone to formal double flowers with soft pink to bright pink petals with darker highlights. Shiny evergreen leaves are dark green throughout the year and provide a wonderful backdrop for the flowers. A truly spectacular selection for gardeners looking for a lower growing Camellia to use as a groundcover or border border in partially shaded landscape beds or in home foundation plantings where a lower growing plant is needed.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 2 to 3 feet tall and 5 to 6 feet wide (depending on pruning), the Jean May is low-growing almost trailing Camellia ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, as a groundcover in landscape borders or on embankments, as a border along paths and walkways, and is especially nice under low windows in home foundation plantings. A fine addition to Camellia gardens, pink theme gardens, cottage gardens, cut flower gardens and woodland borders. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors during winter by those who live above USDA Zone 7a, where this Camellia variety is not reliably winter hardy. Find Your Zone
Suggested Spacing: 4 to 5 feet apart for solid hedge; 8 feet or more apart for space between plants
Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Camellia variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Camellia adapt well to various soil types however prefer a moist but well-drained acidic soil that is rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy soil is a slow killer. In general, Camellia grows and blooms better in partial shade with some shelter from the hot afternoon sun. Morning sun with afternoon shade or filtered sunlight is perfect. All-day filtered sun is fine.
