Camellia pitardii Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Prefers a woodland soil but thrives in a warm open well-drained loam if leafmould is added[1, 11, 200]. A calcifuge pant, preferring a pH between 5 and 7[11, 200]. Prefers the partial shade of a light woodland[200]. Prefers a wet summer and a cool but not very frosty dry winter[200]. Plants are not very self-compatible, self-fertilized flowers produce few seeds and these are of low viability[200]. This species is closely related to C. reticulata[11]. This plant is sometimes cultivated in Asia for the edible oil in its seed. For further Camellia pitardii gardening information |
