About this Camellia cultivar
Camellia lutchuensis 'Fairy Blush' is a fragrant camellia cultivar valued for its masses of small, delicate blush-pink flowers and graceful evergreen habit. It is associated with Camellia lutchuensis and is especially notable for its sweet scent, a trait uncommon in many camellias. The blooms are typically simple to lightly semi-double in appearance, with soft pink petals surrounding prominent yellow stamens, giving the plant a light, airy look. It is commonly grown as an elegant ornamental shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a refined, upright to bushy habit. Flowering generally occurs from late winter into spring, consistent with many lutchuensis-derived camellias.
