About this Camellia cultivar

Camellia 'Strawberry Lemonade' is a cultivar likely corresponding to or closely related to the American Camellia Society listing for 'Strawberry Limeade'. It is characterized by bicolored blooms in pink to strawberry-red tones with lighter creamy yellow to white petaloid areas, giving a bright, refreshing contrast suggestive of its name. The flowers appear full and decorative, with a peony to anemone-like presentation of mixed petals and petaloids. As with many ornamental camellias of this type, it is grown for showy winter to early spring flowers, glossy evergreen foliage, and a dense shrub habit suitable for landscape planting or specimen use.
