The charming good looks of the Dwarf White Camellia make this shrub an instant favorite with many gardeners. The Camellia sasanqua ‘Green 02-004’ boasts pure white double flowers. The blooms are full and have a decadent, ruffled look. The lovely flowers continuously bloom from spring through the first frost. Glossy green ovate foliage with gently scalloped edges offset the beautiful blooms.
The woody, upright form and compact size make this shrub ideal for areas with limited space or for spaces with harsh lines between large shrubs and smaller plants, as Dwarf White can help smooth the transition. Use the Dwarf White Camellia to create a foundation planting or to border a patio or driveway. Situate the plant near a walkway, windows you often open, or an outdoor entertaining space so you can enjoy the delicate, floral fragrance of the flowers. The Dwarf White Camellia grows in zones 7 through 9.
Dwarf White Camellia Care
Camellia shrubs prefer rich, moist, acidic, and well-drained soil. Select a planting location that receives 4 to 6 hours of sunlight. Water when the top few inches of the soil are dry. Established plants need water roughly every two weeks, depending on rainfall. Fertilize in the spring and early summer for an abundant bloom cycle.
Routine pruning removes dead growth or crossed branches and encourages growth and a full form. This shrub can be pruned at any time of the year, but the plant may experience reduced blooming. Save major pruning until after the last flowers fade, typically in the fall. Trim lower branches to give the shrub a tree-like look if desired. Plan to prune every few years.
Dwarf White Camellia Spacing
The Dwarf White Camellia reaches 3 to 4 feet tall and wide. Space shrubs 3 to 4 feet apart to create a hedge or continuous planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
