Description / Camellia 'Touchdown'
This gorgeous Camellia will fill your winter garden with elegant color. Camellias are a staple in the Southern garden with their dark evergreen foliage, early bloom time, and stunning flowers. Touchdown boasts romantic rose pink, peony like blooms. It's a stunner that deserves a spot in a high profile foundation planting or as a background to your outdoor living space. The dense, spreading habit of this camellia can even be trained to spread up against a wall or garage.
Spring or fall planting is fine for most areas. Spring is better in the Upper South, where the root system needs time to get established before onset of cold weather. Mulch thoroughly to keep roots cool and the soil moist. Regular watering is critical during the first year. Water thoroughly to moisten the entire root ball; then let the top of the root ball go slightly dry before the next watering. Follow these tips and your cameilla is sure to thrive.
Make your garden a winner when you plant Touchdown!
