Camellia japonica 'Scentuous'
Camellia japonica 'Scentuous' is a captivating evergreen shrub noted for its beautiful, scented blooms - a rare feature among Camellias. From January to May, it produces elegant semi-double white flowers, each revealing a central cluster of golden stamens. The lightly fragrant flowers contrast perfectly with the glossy, dark green leaves, creating a striking and refined display.
Ideal for borders, woodland gardens, or containers, ‘Scentuous’ thrives in moist but well-drained acidic soil and partial shade. Hardy and reliable, it brings both fragrance and early colour to shaded parts of the garden and makes a superb feature plant for year-round structure.
