When Do Camilla(japonica) Get Fertilzed ?

Question

The bush is 2 years old and had 2 really heavy frosts. It looks good and healthy. Zone 7a I am new to camillas and need to know when and how much to fertilize. It is still blooming after losing all but three buds.

Answer 1

Fertilize in the spring when the plant fist comes into bud and then fertilize every 2 months through spring and early summer. Stop fertilizing in mid summer.

Look for a camellia specific fertilizer and use amounts according to the label.
