About this Camellia cultivar

Variegated Chandleri, commonly sold as Chandleri Elegans Variegated, is a large-flowered camellia cultivar valued for its bright variegated blooms set against dark green foliage. It is generally associated with Camellia japonica and is known for full, lush flowers with irregular white markings over pink to rose-pink petals. The blooms are notably large and showy, making it a prominent ornamental shrub for shaded gardens. Reference context indicates it is a moderate grower reaching about 6 to 8 feet tall and wide, with flowering from December to February, placing it in the early camellia season in many climates.
