Posted this on Camellia forum, but guess it's not very populated.

I didn't see camellias grow around and/or offered by nurseries, but always want one.

Finally, yesterday while attending Roslyn's GOB sale I bought one, Winter's Darling.

It's a 18" tall 4-stemed well branched shrub and I don't want to goof with it.

Few questions, please.

- how large it might grow if survive?

- is it already late to put it in a ground (I could overwinter it in a cold frame and plant next spring)?

- would it bloom in location where it will receive only 2-3 hours of light reflected off the white wall (NW exposure, no winds), but no direct sun whatsoever? For the reference, tall pierises and kalmias blooms there heavily from top to bottom, but azaleas bloom is somewhat mediocre.

-is it suitable to grow in a large pot for long time?
