Stewartia Pseudocamellia 5Ft

Best grown in evenly moist, organically rich, moderately acidic, well-drained sandy loams in full sun to part shade. Does not perform well in heavy, clay soils, dry soils, thin, rocky soils and soils with poor drainage. Requires consistent moisture and is intolerant of drought. Partly shaded conditions are preferred in climates with hot, humid summers. Afternoon sun in particular should be avoided in these climates. Hardy in Zones 5b(-15°F)-8. Site in a location sheltered from winter winds if grown in the colder end of its hardiness range. Plants are slow to establish and transplanting success is highest with young plants.
