About this Camellia cultivar
Duchess Decaze is an old camellia cultivar, most likely a Camellia japonica selection, known from historical horticultural listings and photographic references. It typically bears large, fully double blooms in a formal to rose-form style, usually soft pink to blush pink and sometimes showing deeper pink toward the petal edges or center. Like many classic japonica cultivars, it is likely grown as an evergreen ornamental shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a bushy to upright habit. Flowering is typically in the mid-season to late winter or early spring period, consistent with traditional Camellia japonica cultivars.
