About this Camellia cultivar

Hana-Kisoi is a Japanese camellia cultivar known for its pink, peony-form blooms. Reference context describes it as a pink Japanese peony flower, indicating a lush, full flower with petaloids and layered inner petals typical of the peony class. It is most likely a cultivar of Camellia japonica, a species widely grown for large ornamental winter-to-spring flowers. The bloom appears soft to medium pink overall, with a full, rounded form and decorative, formal garden appeal. As with many C. japonica cultivars, it is likely an evergreen shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a bushy to upright habit.
