Pruning Advice

Post-Flowering Pruning: Prune lightly after flowering to remove dead, damaged or diseased branches. This helps maintain the shrub's shape and encourages healthy new growth.

Shaping: Trim selectively to maintain a balanced, attractive form. Avoid cutting into old, woody growth, as Camellias may struggle to regenerate from it.

Deadheading: Remove spent flowers where practical to keep the plant looking tidy.

Avoid Heavy Pruning: Camellias generally require minimal pruning. Excessive cutting can affect their natural shape and future growth, so prune conservatively.
