Camellia japonica 'Autumn Mist'

This fall blooming C. japonica starts the season by opening large, pure white blooms that develop pink pigment as the weather cools. Most of the pink is at the edges of the petals and gradually fades towards the center of the bloom where the stamens are held in a tight cylinder. Large leaves adorn this upright plant. Blooming typically starts in October and will continue into winter. A Camellia Forest Introduction.
