About this Camellia cultivar

October Pink, likely corresponding to the Southern Living October Magic® Pink Perplexion™ camellia, is an ornamental evergreen camellia grown for its pink double flowers and glossy dark green foliage. From the October Magic series, it is valued for abundant fall to early-season bloom, a dense landscape presence, and use as a foundation, hedge, or specimen shrub. The flowers appear medium-sized, richly petaled, and formal to rose-form in appearance, giving the plant a refined, decorative quality.
