Camellia ?Mary Williams? is a compact variety with impressive, large blooms, making it an ideal choice for a large patio container or as a striking feature in a shrub border with acidic soil. Its delicate rose-pink petals encircle vibrant lemon-yellow anthers, creating perfectly shaped flowers that contrast beautifully with the glossy, dark green leaves. Camellias provide year-round structure and privacy with their dense evergreen foliage, along with a stunning floral display in late winter to early spring, when garden colours are scarce. Height and spread: 1.5-2.5m (4.9-8.2ft).
