Camellia japonica is a stunning specimen for milder gardens with glossy, dark-green, broadly elliptic, evergreen leaves accented with lovely, rose-like flowers in early spring. ‘Sweet Jane’ has lovely mid pink blooms with a central white glow. The small flowers are just 2.5 inches wide but produced in clusters against small leaves. The flowers are long-lasting and resistant to damage from inclement weather.
