The wonderful "Shibori-egao" is one of the most beautiful autumn-flowering camellias. Her Japanese name aptly translates to “colorful smiling face.”
Its beautiful, approximately 8 cm large, semi-double, pink-white spotted flowers with clustered, delicate yellow stamens in their center, sit densely between the medium green, elongated leaves.
The growth is vigorous and the narrow foliage looks particularly elegant and, like the flowers, is significantly larger than other autumn-flowering camellias.
Due to its special flower and leaf shape, Shibori-egao is an exceptional autumn-flowering beauty that impresses with its very good winter hardiness and should not be missing from any collection.
A rarity in the garden.

We offer competent and individual specialist advice. In addition to the care aspects, we attach great importance to selecting the right variety and the optimal planting location so that your camellia will give you many years of joy. Of course, when you buy a camellia, you will also receive detailed planting and care instructions.
We are also happy to help with care errors. Please also take a look at our camel ABC for our recommendations.
Always well packaged
How we ship
Quality testing
Each camellia is carefully checked before shipping and, in addition to the plant passport, receives a weatherproof aluminum variety label.
No drying out
Each plant is watered thoroughly before shipping. The plant pot is then covered with a plastic bag to prevent the root ball from drying out.
Protectively packaged
The camellia is then carefully wrapped in newspaper or wrapping paper so that the leaves, buds and flowers are well protected.
No slipping
The camellia is fixed in the cardboard box so that it cannot slip.
Shatterproof cardboard boxes
Our camellias are shipped in specially made, sturdy cardboard boxes and can therefore arrive to you intact and in excellent condition.
Safe in the truck
We ship particularly large camellias via a shipping company. Here too, the plants are excellently packaged.
Freight forwarding delivery
For very large camellias with a height of 1.50 to 2.30 meters, shipping is carried out by a shipping company. The very well packaged camellia is transported standing on a Euro pallet. The delivery time within Germany is 2-3 days; within Europe up to 1 week. The transport costs are calculated individually depending on where you live. Please contact us by phone or email before ordering.
About Us
I bought my first camellia over 20 years ago. At that time I had my office next to the Palmengarten in Frankfurt and regularly visited the various plant exhibitions. This also applies to the camellia exhibition in February. I was enchanted by the blaze of color, the wonderful flower shapes and the elegant habit of the camellias and couldn't decide which of the many I should take home with me. It was difficult to choose the most beautiful camellia from such a variety. For me it became Jury's Yellow, which accompanied me for many years and even endured on our roof terrace during the particularly hot summer of 2003.
