This Stewartia is a large growing tree form with dark green leaves which turn a brilliant red in the fall. The gold-centered 3 inch white flowers typically bloom from June to July. Its marbled exfoliating bark ranges in colors from grayish-brown to orange-brown. Sometimes listed as Stewartia pseudocamellia var. koreana. The Japanese Stewartia pseudocamellia is similar but does not get as large. Stewartia should have a well-drained fertile soil with ample moisture.
3 inch, white, gold-centered, June-July
