Description

April Remembered is a prized selection from the April Camellia Series, which were developed to have improved winter cold hardiness and a later bloom cycle than most other Camellia japonica. April Remembered is one of a few Camellia japonica recommended for growing as far north as St Louis, Missouri, USDA Zone 6a!

One of the most cold hardy in the April Camellia Series, April Remembered Camellia blooms in late winter through early to mid spring producing an abundance of fragrant, large, 4-5 inch semi-double flowers with pink petals tipped in dark pink and almost-white glowing centers. Centered bright yellow anthers are a nice accent as well. The glossy dark green foliage provides amazing contrast and a wonderful backdrop for the beautiful flowers.

Landscape & Garden Uses

A moderate growing Camellia with an upright habit of growth to about 8-10 feet tall and 6-8 feet wide, April Remembered can be grown as a shrub or small tree. As a shrub, it is ideal for use as a hedge or background plant, in groupings, and is especially nice as espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall.) When “limbed up” to form a small tree it serves well as an attractive and colorful specimen in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Great for cottage gardens, cut flower gardens and woodland borders. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors overwinter for those who live above USDA Zone 6a, where not winter hardy.

Spacing: 5-7′ for solid hedge; 10’+ for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6a, 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.

Got a big plant – looked impressive right out of the box. It’s only been a couple weeks planted and it’s got plenty of new growth despite the temperatures being between the 30’s and 50’s. I did have to trim off a couple girdling roots (i.e. they had wrapped around the base of the plant and would have strangled it in the future). Gave it a big hole in a very protected area of the yard, sheltered by a nearby porch but with plenty of room to grow. Time will tell how it takes to the location and the climate.—————————————————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

I was so impressed by speed of delivery and careful packaging of camellias. They are beautiful and seem happy in my enclosed garden where deer cannot nibble on them.
Thanks again!———————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

Arrived beautifully packaged and ready to plant. All leaves perfect. No sign of stress. About a week later it was in the ground and within a few days I saw a flower bud starting to form. Will definitely order from here again.————————————————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

I’m going to try to get this to survive and hopefully bloom here. The plant arrived healthy. I’m slowly acclimating it to colder spring and it will soon be planted in its NE facing location. We will see how hardy it is depending on the winter to come.—————————————–We are glad you are pleased! Sure hope it survives for you! Beth | WBG 🙂
