About this Camellia cultivar
Camellia japonica 'April Blush' is a cold-hardy Japanese camellia cultivar in the April Series, valued for its soft blush-pink flowers and reliable late-season display. It typically bears elegant semi-double blooms with visible golden stamens, giving the flowers a light, refined appearance rather than a fully formal look. The plant is generally an upright to bushy evergreen shrub with glossy, dark green foliage that provides year-round garden interest. Its name and series strongly suggest a flowering period in late winter to spring, often later than many traditional japonica cultivars.
