This camellia shouts Happy Holidays! This carefree evergreen shrub blooms from November through January.

• Gorgeous winter blooms
• Requires no maintenance
• Drought tolerant

The Yuletide greets your visitors throughout the holiday season… and most of winter!

Blooms begin in September and continue throughout much of December, even into January.

As an evergreen, this shrub can be used as a property barrier, foundation planting or accent plant in any area of your garden.

Camellias are virtually maintenance free, requiring no care… they just bloom year after year! However, if you do decide to trim your camellia, you will be rewarded with double the blooms the following year.

The Yuletide Camellia grows to an impressive 8-10 ft. high and 6-8 ft. wide. Extremely drought tolerant, once established… this shrub can handle any conditions Mother Nature throws at it!

Your Yuletide arrives as a large, well developed 3 gallon plant... ready to bloom this season.

Your Yuletide Camellia can be planted any time of year!

It's Easy to Plant your Yuletide Camellia
	Step 1 - Dig Your Hole Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Yuletide Camellia. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.
	Step 2 - Place Your Tree Next, separate the roots of your Yuletide Camellia gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
	Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Yuletide Camellia again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

Yuletide gets its name because it blooms for Christmas and people cut them for arrangements and float them in bowls. Camellias are easy to grow if they are planted high. Dig a wide shallow hole. Debutante is also an early blooming one that was one of the earliest in America. Visit Magnolia in Charleston SC or attend a camellia show and you'll be hooked. We have a couple of thousand varieties. Growers are usually willing to share scions for cuttings or grafting.
