Carter's Sunburst Camellia 3g (Camellia japonica 'Carters Sunburst')
Spectacular, double, medium pink blooms streaked with deeper pink add early season color to shady areas in late winter to early spring. A prized plant for milder regions. Excellent as a stand-alone statement or massed as a privacy screen. Evergreen.
Pair this multi-colored bloomer with the big blooming, solid colors of Gardenia, Hydrangea, and Azalea. In a more natural woodland setting, combine with the airy foliage of Heavenly Bamboo and Bleeding Heart. Early blooming deciduous trees like Cherry and Dogwood offer the needed filtered shade and ground hugging perennials such as Fumewort, Coral Bells, and Clematis offer interest and color throughout all layers of the garden.
