Camellias Won’t Bloom

Question

My three year old camellias will not bloom. They gave 2-3 blooms last year near the soil, then faded. The plant appears to be healthy; 25 inches high, but seems stunted. No blooms this year. Have added acidic fertilizer to no avail. Thinking about moving them; they get full sun around 7 hours a day. Is this the problem?

Answer 1

Camelias need part shade, like morning sun and afternoon shade or filtered sun all day. They may be stressed. Here are more reasons they might not bloom:
