I just purchased B. Semperflorens 'Rose Doublet' - what a lovely little plant! I had never seen it before and came across it as the last one hiding amongst some dragon wing begonias at a local Ace Hardware. $3.99 for this cute little guy. He just jumped right up into my cart, LOL. I know he is a little leggy. I will give him a little pruning/shaping after he gets comfortable in his new container.

Transplant the camellia when it's dormant (before it puts out new leaves in the spring.) Keep it shaded and watered after you move it until it gets established. Good luck. Rich

The root ball may have dried out, tennesseestorm. Also, I could not identify any mulch near the base of the plant; what happened? My comments below assume that your soil is normal or clay. If your soil is sandy then you need to add about 30-50% more water than noted. Check the soil moisture manually to see how dry things are: insert a finger into the soil near the root ball to a depth of 4". If it feels dry then the plant needs water (this one time only, water 1.5 to 2 gallons; but normally, start with one gallon per watering in Spring and increase the amount and the frequency in the summer). If the soil feels moist or wet then do not water. If this area is windy, consider transplanting during the winter. When watering, try watering the soil a little (do not water the leaves), pause and then water again. Mulch (4 inches) will help maintain the soil sort-of-constantly moist and will aid greatly on days when there are wind advisories. Spread the mulch a little past the drip line; more if the location is windy. Luis

Well I'm curious if you tried it...?
