Laura Walker Camellia is a vigorous upright evergreen shrub with glossy deep green foliage.  The large bright red flowers that are semi-double to anemone form and may have white variegation begin blooming in late winter and continue well into spring attracting butterflies.  Best blooms occur in partial sun and acidic, well-drained soil.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Medium maintenance. Too much water retention can increase susceptibility to fungal diseases, including root rot, black mold, blight, canker, anthracnose, and leaf spots.  Watch for aphids and spider mites.   Yellowing leaves indicate acidity too low. Fertilize monthly in spring and summer. If desired, remove all but one bud from each cluster to increase the size of the flower. Prune immediately after flowering.
