About this Camellia cultivar
Camellia 'Snow Bell' is a Camellia japonica cultivar known from its use as a parent of the hybrid 'Spring Mist'. Reference information indicates that 'Spring Mist' inherited miniature, semi-double flowers that are white with a pink blush from a cross involving C. japonica 'Snow Bell' and C. lutchuensis, suggesting 'Snow Bell' itself is a small-flowered, light-colored ornamental camellia. As a japonica cultivar, it is likely an evergreen shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a compact to spreading habit. Its flowers appear refined and delicate, with white petals often touched by soft pink.
