High Fragrance Camellia - Camellia 'High Fragrance'
Most camellias have no scent worth mentioning. 'High Fragrance' is one of the exceptions, a New Zealand bred Camellia hybrid that crosses japonica flower quality with the perfume of the small flowered species lutchuensis, producing large peony form blooms in soft pink that carry a real fragrance on still air. It is slow and it wants shelter, so it is planted deliberately: close to a door, a path or a window where the scent will actually be noticed.
Why High Fragrance Camellia
Genuine perfume: A rare scented camellia, with fragrance strong enough to register a few metres from the plant on a calm day.
Large peony form flowers: Full, many petalled pink blooms through winter into early spring, at a size the scented species cannot produce.
Shade performer: It prefers filtered light and does its best work in the sheltered southern or eastern side of a building.
Restrained growth: A slow, upright habit means it holds its allotted space for years without needing to be cut back hard.
Long lived: Given acidic soil and steady moisture a camellia of this type will outlast most of the planting around it.
Ideal Applications
Entry and doorway planting: Sited beside a front door or gate so the fragrance is met on arrival rather than missed at the back of a bed.
Shaded courtyard feature: A single plant carries a small enclosed courtyard through winter where sun loving shrubs would sulk.
Woodland understorey: Planted beneath high open canopy with ferns and hellebores in a cool, sheltered garden.
Feature container: Grown in a large pot of acidic mix on a shaded terrace, where it can be positioned close to seating.

Soil & Drainage: Moist, well-drained, acidic soil (pH 5.5 to 6.5) rich in organic matter; avoid waterlogged or alkaline conditions
