Just in time for the holiday season and beginning to bloom now. It doesn’t seem like Christmas without having these beautiful, solid red, Professor Sargent’s blooming in your yard. I grew up having these in our yard as a child and remember always seeing them bloom during Christmas. Available in 3 gallon sizes.

Camellias are now starting to bloom and we have new varieties!

One of the new camellias just in this year is called, “Debutante“. This is an absolutely beautiful looking flower! It’s a Japonica camellia species, Double Formal, light pink in color, and is available in @ 4 gallon size pots. This stunner is one of the older, and hardy varieties of camellias. It will do fine in cold weather. I’ll be continuing to post new camellia photos here so be sure you check back with us regularly to see more photos.

Spring is here

Spring is here, and it’s time to spray! Now’s a great time to spray your camellias to help prevent pests like Spider Mites from attacking and causing havoc among your lovely camellias. I use a product called, ‘All Season’ oil, which I add about 3 or 4 Tablespoons of it to a gallon size, water filled jug ( I use an empty milk jug), shake it well, then pour into a quart size plastic sprayer, and you are ready to spray.

You’ll want to saturate the stems and leaves on your camellias, really hosing them down well, including underneath the leaves, and all over your camellias, from top to bottom. Underneath the leaves is usually where these critters love to hide and wreck havoc silently. If you look closely you can see the really tiny looking minuet green spiders hiding under the leaves. I recommend spraying very heavily and liberally at least 3 times a year, if at all possible. That way you can keep them at bay, so to speak.

Re-apply the same treatment again on your camellias in two weeks. You can’t use too much of it, as it’s an oil, not a pesticide, and it works by smothering the mites, and will wash off with rain, or water. Good luck, and enjoy looking at (and after! 🙂 ) your lovely, awe-inspiring, camellias.
