Camellia japonica 'Volunteer'®
Camellia japonica 'Volunteer'® is a spectacular evergreen shrub that brings colour and drama to the garden in the darker months. From January to March, it produces large semi-double blooms of rich pink, delicately edged in white, creating a striking bicolour effect against the glossy, dark green foliage. Each flower is long-lasting, adding vibrancy when little else is in bloom.
The evergreen leaves provide structure and contrast throughout the year, making this variety equally attractive out of season. Ideal for sheltered, lightly shaded borders, woodland gardens, or as a container specimen, it thrives in moist, acidic, well-drained soil. ‘Volunteer’® is a reliable and easy-to-grow camellia that rewards with both elegance and impact.
