Description

Camellia x williamsii are a highly regarded set of hybrids that grow to about 5m (16ft) high and are well suited to most gardens. They shed spent flowers, unlike some varieties of C. japonica, and are able to recover themselves in new blooms after periods of severe weather.

This is a cultivar bearing unusually variegated foliage which is yellowish in centres of leaves, and has dark green margins. Flowers are cup-shaped, single and bright pink.
