Camellia japonica 'Unryu', Zig Zag or Contorted Camellia

Single, reddish-pink, funnel-shaped flowers bloom in late winter and sporadically rebloom on artfully zig-zagging stems. This photo was taken in early January! 'Unryu' means "dragon in the clouds" in Japanese, suggesting the twisting of a dragon as it ascends to the sky. Nice for bonsai, evergreen, reliable.

Mature size: 6-8 feet tall & 4-6 feet wide
