Bring late winter to spring interest to your garden with Camellia ‘Brushfields Yellow’. Brushfield’s Yellow is one of the most popular camellias, with anemone-form flowers that have creamy white outer petals around a centre of pale primrose-yellow petaloids. It is one of the closest camellias to yellow and flowers in spring.
Camellias are classic evergreen shrubs with glossy, dark green leaves and beautiful rose-like flowers from late winter into spring, when little else is in bloom. They are long-lived and reliable in shady, acid-soil gardens and patio pots.
Camellia ‘Brushfields Yellow’ grows best in dappled shade, sheltered from early-morning sun and cold wind, in moist, well-drained, acidic soil or ericaceous compost. It is a good choice for large containers, and also works well for shady and woodland gardens, evergreen screening and shady borders. Pair with rhododendrons, pieris, ferns, hellebores and skimmias.
Give the pot a good soak first. Then dig a wide planting hole, enrich the soil with compost, and plant so the top of the root ball sits level with the ground. Firm in gently and water well, then add a mulch to hold in moisture.
Keep the roots moist, especially in late summer when next year’s flower buds form. Feed in spring with an ericaceous fertiliser and water with rainwater. Keep the roots moist, especially in summer when buds form. Feed with ericaceous fertiliser and prune after flowering. Prune lightly after flowering if needed to shape the plant. Bud drop is usually caused by dry roots in late summer; yellow leaves suggest alkaline soil.
Excellent in large pots of ericaceous compost; water with rainwater.
