About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia oleifera 'Lu Shan Snow' is a cultivar of the oil-seed camellia valued for its snowy white flowers and ornamental garden appeal. Based on the cultivar name and species, it is likely selected for clean white blooms resembling snow, with the generally simple to semi-double floral character typical of Camellia oleifera. As an oleifera selection, it is expected to be a vigorous evergreen shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a practical, upright to bushy habit. Camellia oleifera typically flowers in autumn to early winter, so this cultivar is inferred to bloom early in the camellia season.
