Description
Ack-Scent Camellia features pink, peony-shaped blooms in early spring. The flowers have an amazing spicy fragrance. Like most Camellia, Ack-Scent does well in shade but it can also thrive in sun. Just try to avoid too much afternoon sun.
Ack Scent Camellia was originally introduced by the US National Arboretum, it is considered a heavy bloomer. It has more of an upright growth habit compared to other Camellia Japonica’s. Because of the upright growth, some people grow Ack-Scent as a small tree. You can prune off lower branching to make it into more of an ornamental tree.
