Description
A cold hardy Camellia known to survive winters as far north as USDA Hardiness Zone 6b, the Pink Icicle Camellia features large, semi-double flowers with icy pink wavy petals that surround a boss of bright golden-yellow stamens at the center. The bright and cheery flowers are produced late winter through early spring and contrast beautifully with the very deep green foliage. The flowers are excellent for cutting and displaying in your favorite vase or float just one flower in a bowl of water.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 7 to 9 feet tall and 5 to 7 feet wide, Pink Icicle can be grown as a shrub or small tree. As a shrub it is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, or as a hedge or background plant in landscape borders and is especially nice as a corner plant or espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall) in home foundation plantings. As this camellia grows taller lower branches can be removed to form a small evergreen tree that serves well as an attractive and colorful focal point specimen in landscape borders and 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 and garden above USDA Zone 6b, where this camellia variety is not reliably winter hardy. Find Your Zone
Suggested Spacing: 4 to 5 feet apart for solid hedge; 10 feet or more apart for space between plants
Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6b, 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.
