Details

When you place your order a beautiful Camellia, botanical name: Camellia japonica, will be freshly selected by our devoted gardeners here, before being wrapped and placed in its luxury parcel.

This Camellia is quite happy to be lightly pruned in late spring and will reach a height of 2 metres in 10 years, if allowed to grow naturally.

A card with your personal message, the story of the Camellia's ancient symbolism and a full care guide is also enclosed with your gift. Add a personalised brass heart, star or plaque (see images) engraved with your message so this special gift is always remembered.

Symbolism

In ancient mythology the Camellia symbolises love and devotion. To read more about the Camellia's ancient symbolism see our blog here.

Tree Care

Every Camellia is growing in its organic pot filled with top-notch compost, so no green fingers are required, just natural daylight and water. We have added special nutrients to your Camellia’s compost to create the perfect balance of nourishment. This organic goodness will slowly release into the soil to ensure your tree continues to flourish.

In a few weeks, plant your Camellia, still in its organic pot, in an outdoor flower pot (one about 20cm wide and with holes so excess water can drain away) or in a sunny spot in the garden. 

The Present Tree's Organic Plant Care Kit is packed with all the health-boosting goodness suitable for your Camellia. Click here for more details.
