Camellia japonica ?Winter Perfume Pearl? is a charming shrub that brings a burst of cheer during the gloomy winter months, blooming from late winter to early spring. Its compact size makes it ideal for planting in a large container, allowing you to enjoy its delicate beauty indoors even on the coldest days, perhaps seen through a window. The single flowers, with soft pink petals and a central cluster of golden stamens, are both elegant and fragrant. Place it near a doorway, and when the weather warms, step outside to inhale its sweet scent. The lush, dark evergreen foliage provides year-round colour and structure, making it an excellent backdrop for your spring and summer patio plants. Height and spread: 1.5-2.5m (4.9-8.2ft).
