Discovered by Chengdu Nursery growing in the wild of Sichuan, and extremely rare in the United States, Camellia parvilimba is a winter bloomer (Jan to Feb) producing an abundance of small, trumpet-shaped fragrant flowers with white petals surrounding golden stamens. The new leaves emerge scarlet red and turn to a lustrous dark olive-green. The leaves are perhaps the smallest of any camellia, providing fine texture in the garden. As camellias go, it is a dwarf growing to about 3 to 4 feet tall and equally as wide with an upright spreading habit. Everything about this camellia is small compared to its larger growing cousins, which makes it a perfect fit for smaller garden spaces where it's sure to be a conversation piece!
