Q.Camellia japonica
My camellia japonica plant didn’t do well over the winter and is loaded with dry brown leaves and very few green ones. There are only 2 flowers and I usually have many, many more. Should I trim it back or leave it alone?
Also, should it be fertilized and with what? Thanks so much for your help….I am really disappointed in what is usually a beautiful bush this time of year!
Here is an article on how to save cold damaged plants that will help you. The best thing you can do is prune the damaged parts away (after the danger of frost has passed), water and fertilize it.
