April Dawn is a prized selection from the April Camellia Series, which were developed to have improved winter cold hardiness and a later bloom cycle than most other Camellia japonica. One of the most cold hardy in the April Camellia Series, April Dawn Camellia produces an abundance of fragrant, eye catching double flowers with white petals streaked in dark pink dark, and also solid deep raspberry pink to almost red flowers on the same plant. We think this one should've been named ' April Candy Cane' Camellia as it's streaked petals definitely remind one of a candy cane. Blooming later than others, flowers start coming in late winter and continue through April, hence the name. The striking flowers are set against a perfect backdrop of glossy, deep green foliage. April Dawn's upright narrow form lends well to smaller spaces where other Camellia japonica varieties won't fit. April Dawn is listed as cold hardy as far north as St Louis, Missouri USDA Zone 6. Landscape & Garden Uses A moderate growing Camellia with an upright habit of growth to about 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide, April Dawn Camellia can be grown as a shrub, espalier (flat against a wall), or small tree. As a shrub, it is ideal for use as a hedge or background plant, in groupings, and is especially nice as espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall.) When "limbed up" to form a small tree it serves well as an attractive and colorful specimen in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Great for cottage gardens, cut flower gardens and woodland borders. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors overwinter for those who live above USDA Zone 6a, where not winter hardy. Spacing: 3.5 feet apart for solid hedge; 5.5 feet or more apart for space between plants
