Camellia Japonica 'Fire Ball' is an exquisite ornamental plant, renowned for its vibrant, fiery-red blooms. This particular variety stands out with a unique single-stem structure that stretches to an impressive height of 1 meter, supporting a lush, well-branched canopy. The total height of the plant reaches approximately 180 cm, creating a striking vertical display in any garden setting.

The 'Fire Ball' blooms are a true spectacle – large, rounded, and rich in color, resembling burning spheres in the midst of deep green, glossy foliage. The flowers emerge in the late winter to early spring, providing a brilliant contrast against the cooler seasonal backdrop. This Camellia variety is known for its robustness and relatively low maintenance requirements, thriving in well-drained, slightly acidic soil and partial shade. Its striking appearance and growth habit make it an ideal choice for accentuating garden borders, creating focal points, or even as a standalone specimen in a container.

With its eye-catching beauty and elegant stature, Camellia Japonica 'Fire Ball' is a must-have for enthusiasts seeking to add a touch of drama and color to their outdoor spaces.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
