About this Camellia cultivar

Taffeta White is a white camellia cultivar valued for its refined, formal appearance. Based on the cultivar name and typical camellia nomenclature, it is most likely a Camellia japonica selected for elegant white blooms with a smooth, tailored petal arrangement suggestive of a formal-double flower. The flowers appear pure white to ivory, with a crisp, clean presentation suited to ornamental landscape use and exhibition. As with many japonica cultivars, it is likely an evergreen shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a dense, bushy habit, flowering in the main camellia season from winter into spring.
