Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Camellia 'Volunteer' is a remarkable hybrid Camellia japonica x saluensis, celebrated for its ever-changing, bi-coloured blooms that range from deep reddish-pink to white, with the intensity of each colour shifting through the season. This dynamic colour variation makes 'Volunteer' a unique and eye-catching addition to any garden, particularly from Autumn (Djeran) through to Early Spring (Djilba). Ideal for garden beds or large pots, this cultivar thrives in areas with morning sun, part shade, or full shade, making it perfect for shaded spots in Perth’s warm climate.

For best growth, plant 'Volunteer' in well-drained, acidic soil using a Camellia-specific potting mix to support balanced moisture levels and encourage healthy root development. Regular watering is crucial during Perth’s dry periods to keep the soil consistently moist. Growing to an approximate height and width of 2 - 3 metres, 'Volunteer' offers a lush, evergreen presence that adds both structure and seasonal colour variation to shaded garden areas.
