Pink Icicle' Camellia, Cold-Hardy Camellias, Winter Blooming Camellias, Spring Blooming Camellias, Camellia Hybrids, Mid Season Camellias
Vigorous and pretty, Camellia ‘Pink Icicle’ is an eye-catching camellia with very large, 4.5 in. wide (11 cm), shell pink flowers, blooming in mid-season (late winter to spring, depending on your area). The peony-form blooms consist of rabbit ear petals elegantly intermingled with petaloids (small petals) and golden stamen. The evergreen foliage of small, glossy, oval-shaped, dark green leaves makes a lovely foil for the large flowers. Developed by Dr. William Ackerman of the United States National Arboretum, this camellia hybrid is cold tolerant and can be successfully grown in regions as cold as USDA Zone 6b.
