Description

One of if not the most beautiful and perfectly formed white flowers in existence, White By The Gate is an outstanding Camellia prized for its abundance of large, formal double pure white flowers produced continuously over a long flowering season from late winter into spring. Its dark green foliage is the perfect backdrop for the bright flowers. To enjoy these magnificent flowers indoors display several cuttings in a vase or float just one in a bowl of water.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 10 to 12 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide, the White By The Gate Camellia can be grown as a shrub or small tree. As a shrub it is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, or as a hedge or background plant in landscape borders and is especially nice as a corner plant or espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall) in home foundation plantings. As this Camellia grows taller lower branches can be removed to form a highly attractive small tree that serves well as colorful focal point specimen in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. A fine addition to camellia gardens, white theme gardens, cottage gardens, cut flower gardens and woodland borders. Also suitable for containers that can be brought indoors during winter by those who live and garden above USDA Zone 7a, where this variety is not winter hardy. Find Your Zone

Suggested Spacing: 5 to 6 feet apart for solid hedge; 12 feet or more apart for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Camellia variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

Camellia adapt well to various soil types however prefer a moist but well-drained acidic soil that is rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy soil is a slow killer. In general, Camellia grows and blooms better in partial shade with some shelter from the hot afternoon sun. Morning sun with afternoon shade or filtered sunlight is perfect. All-day filtered sun is fine.

Good size, color and form. I bought a different Camellia (I reviewed as well) from here, and it was consistently nice. Very healthy looking. I’ve had them for only a couple weeks, so I can’t say anything about extended longevity, but I’m pleased with the plant. Will order from here again if needed.—————————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

The entire experience from inquiry to delivery was beyond any possible expectation.
I inquired about Gardenias and Camellias, I received a response from Angie. So helpful, even helped me with a Gardenia which I had delivered several weeks prior.
My partner and I were looking for special plants for a special personal event, Angie went through options and explained thoroughly the plants she had available and also offered to have an expert look at pictures of the current Gardenia I had which I was worried about it’s health.
We ordered a “White by the Gate” Camellia and she selected one for us.
We received a thoroughly and effectively packed 3gallon Camellia which has continued to thrive!
Coco is absolutely beautiful and we are looking forward to her blooming.
We even were given an unexpected discount to say thank you and to help us celebrate our special occasion.
We ordered just the Camellia since 3gallon Gardenias weren’t available at the time. My partner and I will be ordering a Gardenia as well as more Camellias and even have picked out some roses.
I don’t know or care about price comparisons with other nursery’s, but what I do know is the attention to detail and care not only about the products they offer which is expected – the attention to the most minute details was farthest outside the ball park of what we expected and. It’s because of this Wilson Bros has our dedicated and loyal, faithful business.
Our appreciation and heart expressed thanks can never be effectively expressed in writing or in person. We are attempting first here and secondly, we will attempt in a visit to the nursery when we travel to Florida soon.
Wilson Bros will not disappoint, and if they don’t exceed your expectations I am confident they will do everything they can to do their best to meet them.
Thank you Wilson Bros! ????????————————————————————-Wow! Thanks so much for the photos! We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy Coco for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
