Description
Camellia × williamsii ‘Mimosa Jury’ is a charming hybrid camellia: its beautifully imbricate, double corollas are a sugared-almond pink porcelain colour. They bloom against a backdrop of satiny dark green foliage from late winter onwards. Its naturally dense habit is suitable for partially shaded borders and for growing in a large container. Give it a prime spot near the entrance to enjoy its flowers from February to April.
Belonging to the Theaceae family, the 'Mimosa Jury' cultivar is part of the Camellia × williamsii group, horticultural hybrids between C. saluenensis and C. japonica. Selected in New Zealand by the Jury family, it was registered in the 1990s. This hybridisation work aimed to combine the floriferousness and good form of the williamsii with the elegance of the japonica.
This camellia is rounded and dense. In the ground, it reaches 1.30 m tall with a 1 m spread at 10 years old. A very old specimen can reach up to 2 m tall by 1.50 m wide; in a large pot, the plant remains more compact (approximately 1–1.20 m).
The evergreen, elliptical to obovate, 6 to 9 cm long, leathery, finely toothed leaves are dark green and semi-glossy.
The 7-9 cm diameter flowers are double with overlapping petals reminiscent of a water lily. They are sugared-almond pink, paler towards the centre. Flowering occurs from February to April (sometimes as early as January in very mild climates). The hardiness of this variety is rated at −14 °C in healthy soil and in a sheltered position.
Plant Camellia ‘Mimosa Jury’ in bright partial shade or morning sun, sheltered from cold winds. Provide it with humus-bearing, non-calcareous, well-drained soil that does not dry out in summer. In a border, you could plant it in front of a small Magnolia stellata ‘Royal Star’ next to a Variegated Pieris. Along an edge, plant a carpet of Erica carnea ‘Springwood White’. Near a pathway, pair it with Sarcococca ‘Purple Stem’ for its subtle fragrance in late winter. Combine it with other camellias like ‘Jury’s Yellow’ to vary the forms and colours of the flowers.
Camellias from the Jury line bear very regular flowers that fall cleanly, without their petals browning in wet weather.

Planting and care
Camellia 'Mimosa Jury' tolerates sun in favourable climates, such as in humid and less sunny regions, but it is at its best in partial shade, protected from scorching sun and sheltered from strong winds. Plant it in moist, humus-bearing, acidic, and well-drained soil. Do not plant the bush too deeply; the top of the root ball should be covered by 3 cm. In winter, cover it with a 5 to 7 cm thick mulch formed of leaf mould and shredded bark. Beware of late frosts, which can damage the flowers and buds. During dry periods, water the shrub to prevent bud drop. It is best to plant the camellia in autumn to encourage good rooting and better flowering from the first year. Possible diseases are: chlorosis caused by excess lime, brown spots caused by scorching on leaves in full sun, sooty mould, scale insects, and vine weevils.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
