Description

Elegant and understated, this beautiful Camellia makes a spectacular specimen shrub. In early spring, its glowing-red shoots and rounded, pink buds provide a bright splash of colour that is quickly followed by exquisite white flowers with a delicate pink flush. This superb evergreen shrub has a compact pyramidal shape and looks perfectly at home in mixed borders, large containers and woodland areas. Camellia 'Cupido' requires an acid soil but can be easily grown in a container using ericaeous compost. Height: 150cm (59"). Spread: 75cm (30").

Culinary note: The flowers can be used as garnishes but are also dried and then cooked in Asian cuisine. For more details about edible flowers
