» English Description
Taniguchi, 1912, Chinka Kyōkan as ‘Mine-no-yuki’: Pink, some light spots appear, with deeper pink spots and stripes, margined white, 10 cm across, 7-9 petals, 120 light pink stamens. See Hiratsuka, 1964, Higo Camellia, pp.38, 14 (English); Seibundō Shinkōsha, 1979, Senchinshū, p.125, description, p.241. As the name ‘Mine-no-yuki’ has been used for earlier cultivars of C.japonica and C.sasanqua, for the Higo camellia the name has been prefixed with “Higo” to distinguish the cultivar. Thus Higo-mine-no-yuki is accepted as the valid name. Originated in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. Synonym: ‘Alpine Snow’.
