Description

» English Description

Puddle, 1958, NCCS., The Camellia Bulletin, vol.12, No.1, p.23: This variety, long grown under the dubious name of ‘Semi-double’...the flower size is as large as any and it has immense vigour. The pink buds open pale silvery blush, forming a large, semi-double flower of irregular shape. It has a tendency towards doubling of the flowers and on an established bush there may be single, semi-double and irregular flowers. The leaves are pale green. Originated in England. It came to Bodnant in 1933 under the name Williamsii semi-double. Received a RHS “Award of Merit” in 1960.
