| Botanical Name | Camellia japonica 'Royal Velvet' |
| Description | An elegant upright evergreen known for its large, semi-double, dark red flowers. In the Willis and Houston area, it requires protection from the harsh afternoon sun and prefers acidic, well-draining soil. Because of our local heavy clay, we strongly recommend planting in raised beds with organic amendments to ensure the roots do not stay waterlogged. |
| Exposure | Partial Shade (Morning sun with afternoon shade is ideal) |
| Height x Width | 8-12 ft. Tall x 6-8 ft. Wide |
| Water | Moderate; keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Use mulch to help regulate root temperature and moisture levels. |
| Zones | 7 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply an acid-loving plant fertilizer in early spring after the blooming cycle has completed. |
| Pruning | Prune immediately after flowering to maintain shape and clear out any dead wood. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
