Camellia japonica 'Red Fellow'

 

 

Red Fellow Camellia distinguishes itself through bright large semi-double blooms featuring prominent yellow stamen centers, establishing commanding visual presence within a refined evergreen framework. This moderately slow-growing cultivar reaches 8 feet in height and 4 feet in width, establishing refined vertical proportions suitable for diverse landscape applications. Exceptional cold hardiness renders it exceptionally valuable for zone-6 cultivation, expanding geographic suitability beyond conventional camellia parameters. Its versatility encompasses accent display, group plantings, container cultivation, and cut-flower applications. The combination of commanding floral character, refined proportions, exceptional cold tolerance, and multi-functional utility establishes it as an outstanding selection for gardeners in cooler climates prioritizing sophisticated ornamental presence and refined camellia performance without demanding specialized cultural protocols or intensive management requirements.

 

Red Fellow Camellia thrives in well-draining soil conditions and benefits from restrained watering protocols—excessive moisture retention poses greater establishment risk than periodic drought stress. In clay-predominant soils prevalent throughout many regions, amending planting holes with pine bark or comparable organic soil conditioners substantially improves drainage and root development. This soil preparation methodology proves equally beneficial for companion acid-loving species including rhododendrons, mountain laurels, and azaleas, establishing optimal growing conditions that support sustained vigor and reliable performance across diverse landscape applications.

Be sure to use a well drained soil medium when planting any Camellia as they prefer less watering than you might think. In NC our soil is clay so we prefer to use pine bark soil conditioner when planting Camellia, Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel, and Azalea.
