Julie Anne appeared by chance in a NSW garden some 60 years ago, and since then she's become popular with Aussie gardeners for her deep large double pink flowers, each subtly striped in silver.

Julie Anne is a vigorous grower for a camellia, and upright in habit, which makes her ideal for hedging and screening as well as feature planting.
