Camellia japonica ‘C.M. Hovey’ is a classic, heritage camellia admired for its large, formal double blooms in vivid crimson-rose. Each flower features perfectly arranged, overlapping petals forming a symmetrical, rose-like shape up to 11 cm wide. Blooming from late winter into early spring, it adds bold color and refined elegance to the garden when few other plants are in flower. The glossy, dark green foliage provides year-round appeal. With an upright, vigorous growth habit, ‘C.M. Hovey’ reaches 2.5 to 4 meters tall and thrives in acidic, well-drained soil and partial shade. It’s ideal for specimens, hedging, or shaded garden borders.
