About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia 'Fimbriata' is a well-known japonica cultivar valued for its large, elegant white flowers with distinctly fringed and serrated petal margins. The blooms are typically formal-double to very full double in appearance, creating a refined, ruffled effect that makes the cultivar especially recognizable. It is an old garden camellia commonly grown as an ornamental shrub, with glossy dark green evergreen foliage and a dense, upright to bushy habit. As a Camellia japonica cultivar, it generally flowers from mid-season into late season, providing showy winter to spring display. It is especially admired for its pure white color, symmetrical bloom shape, and crisp fringed edging.
