Description

One of if not the longest flowering camellias in our gardens, E.G. Waterhouse produces an abundance of perfectly formed, absolutely gorgeous formal double flowers with true pink petals from mid winter to mid spring. Flowers begin to appear in January or February and continue through April! The glossy, dark green leaves provide the perfect backdrop for the medium to large flowers. The flowers are wonderful in a vase where they can be displayed in the home or float just one in a bowl of water.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 9 to 12 feet tall and 6 to 9 feet wide, E.G.Waterhouse Camellia can be grown as a large 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 partially shaded 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 a highly attractive focal point specimen in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. A fine addition to camellia gardens, pink theme gardens, cottage gardens, and cut flower gardens. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors during winter by those who live and garden above USDA Zone 7a, where this variety is not reliably winter hardy. Find Your Zone

Suggested Spacing: 6-7 feet apart for solid hedge; 11-12 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 or wet 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.

This camellia arrived in beautiful shape. The shrub was large, well-packaged, arrived during a heat wave, and the leaves nonetheless were beautiful and glossy. I planted it about 10 days ago and there have been no issues with transplant shock. I am very happy with the purchase.——————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

It’s always a leap of faith to order from an online plant nursery. In this instance that faith was handsomely rewarded. The camellia was absolutely beautiful with not a leaf out of place and in active growth. The leaves were so shiny green it almost didn’t look real.
Well done, Wilson Brothers! I’ve gone through your plant offerings and made up both a wish and back in stock list. Another order is already on the way.———————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

The camellia was packaged very well. I was very happy with how it arrived. It seems healthy and has a lot of new leaf growth. I live in zone 7A so hopefully, I planted it in the right location. I can’t wait to see if it flowers next year. I didn’t purchase it until April so I don’t expect it to bloom this year.——————-WBG Reply: Hi Nancy, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the E. G. Waterhouse Camellia.
