William Lanier Hunt Camellia

Description

CAMELLIA BLOOMS IN FALL & WINTER.
WHEN MOST OF THE OTHER PLANTS LOOK DEAD.

A profusion of very showy, small- to medium-sized, deep rose-red, loose peony-like blooms in mid-fall. A vigorous growth habit with a rounded, upright form, and new burgundy foliage that ages to a lush, glossy green. This versatile shrub works well as a natural hedge, screen, border planting, or specimen plant.

• Mature size is 10-20 ft tall/5-12 ft wide
• Hardy in zones 7-11
• Full Sun

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves – looking dead and dry – very normal. They will flush out in spring.

We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.
