About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia japonica cultivar known in reference material as 'Little Men' and listed here as 'Little Man'. Introduced in 1954, this is a japonica camellia with a small to medium ornamental bloom, typically pink with lighter tonal variation and a neatly layered double form. The flowers appear refined and formal in presentation, and the plant is consistent with the evergreen, glossy-leaved habit typical of Camellia japonica. The flowering time is inferred to be mid-season based on the February reference and common japonica performance.
