| Botanical Name | Camellia japonica 'Kramer's Supreme' |
| Description | One of the most popular red Camellias for the Houston and Willis area, known for its massive, fragrant, peony-form flowers. It thrives in our humidity but requires protection from intense afternoon sun. Because of our local clay, it is best to plant in a raised bed or mound with organic amendments to ensure the acidic, well-drained environment it needs to flourish. |
| Exposure | Partial Shade (Morning sun and afternoon shade is ideal) |
| Height x Width | 6-10 ft. Tall x 6-10 ft. Wide |
| Water | Moderate; requires consistent moisture. Mulch heavily to keep roots cool and hydrated during hot Texas summers. |
| Zones | 7 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply an acid-loving plant fertilizer in early spring after the blooming cycle has ended. |
| Pruning | Prune immediately after flowering to maintain size and shape. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
