Features

Characteristics

Plant Needs

The October Magic® Orchid™ Camellia is a refined evergreen shrub that brings fall gardens to life with a profusion of semi-double blooms. Each flower is a delicate blend of white to blush petals touched with orchid-pink highlights, making this camellia a standout in any planting. Growing to just 4–5 feet tall and 3–4 feet wide, it holds a naturally compact, conical shape that fits neatly into both small and larger landscapes.

Why We Love It

At Creekside, we love plants that deliver both structure and romance, and Orchid™ does just that. Its fall flowers extend the gardening season with color and fragrance at a time when most shrubs are resting. The blooms draw butterflies, the evergreen foliage provides year-round backbone, and its tidy, upright form means low-maintenance beauty. It’s the perfect camellia for gardeners who want elegance in a manageable size.
