About this Camellia cultivar

Aijiro is a traditional Japanese camellia cultivar, most likely of Camellia japonica, known for its very pale, refined floral coloring. The name is associated with a near-white bloom, sometimes showing the faintest blush or creamy cast. Based on traditional Japanese camellia characteristics and the cultivar name context, it is best described as an elegant ornamental camellia with a classic formal appearance, suitable for garden display and collection plantings. As with many old Japanese cultivars, it likely bears glossy evergreen foliage and a neat shrub habit.
