So you just use regulat potting soil nothing acidic.?

[@sammysworld5485]

I’m in zone 7b and most Camilla Japonicas isn’t lower then a zone 6 so I can’t keep them in a container or they would freeze.

Hi, I thought camellias need acidic soil? You didn’t amend with anything to add acidity? Trying to figure out how to repot my camellia. Thanks!

What size pot did you use to plant the camellia?

[@CornellFarms]

The pot depicted in the video is a 21" diameter x 20" high Glendale Planter! The important thing is for the pot to be slightly larger than the current root ball of your plant.
