Native to East Asia, Camellia spp. are highly valued in the bonsai world for their abundant and elegant flowering. Their glossy green leaves enhance the large flowers, which appear in shades of white, pink, or red, creating a stunning visual display during winter and early spring. It is a moderately growing species that responds very well to pruning and shaping, ideal for bonsai enthusiasts seeking colorful and striking trees.
Sunlight: Prefers filtered sunlight or partial shade. Avoid intense direct sun, which may damage leaves and flowers.
Watering: Keep the soil moist, avoiding waterlogging. Camellias require regular watering, especially during flowering.
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Avoid overly dry or poorly ventilated locations.
Pruning: Prune branches and spent flowers after blooming to encourage new flowering and maintain the bonsai’s shape.
Fertilization: Fertilize during spring and early summer with a fertilizer suitable for acid-loving plants. Reduce fertilization after flowering.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years, preferably after flowering, using a well-draining acidic soil mix.
Flowering: The true beauty of Camellia lies in the seasonal transformation of its leaves and the elegance and variety of its flower colors, which bring vitality and sophistication to the bonsai during the flowering months.
