About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia 'Coquettii' is an old ornamental camellia cultivar, most likely a selection of Camellia japonica. It is known for its elegant, fully double blooms, typically in shades of soft to medium pink, and is valued as a classic garden and exhibition camellia. The flowers appear neatly layered and formal in presentation, giving the plant a refined, rosette-like appearance. As with many traditional japonica cultivars, it is likely an evergreen shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a dense, bushy habit, flowering from winter into spring in the main camellia season.
