About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia 'Pink Surprise' is an evergreen camellia cultivar described in nursery sources under the closely matching name 'Spring Surprise'. It bears pink buds opening to double, soft pink, frilly flowers from winter through spring. The plant forms a medium-sized shrub to about 2 m tall and 1.5 m wide, with glossy green foliage and a neat habit suitable for specimen planting, hedging, mixed borders, and cottage or formal gardens. Based on the reference context, it is most likely a Camellia japonica cultivar with ornamental double blooms and reliable cool-season flowering.
