Hi Yankee,

The CSPV.org site has a great deal of information about camellias that are suited to colder climates. The webpage connected to the link below doesn't have pictures, but if you do a Google image search you can find pictures for most of them. If you like pink, then 'Jerry Hill' is excellent.

Thanks for the link and info, Tom.

One more question - will the plants in the nursery be labelled Ackerman and then then Frost Prince? Or will I just need to know that Frost Prince is an Ackerman hybrid?

Hi Yankee,

I doubt that you will see Dr. Ackerman's name on the plant label at the Nursery. He developed many of them when he worked for USDA. Usually, it's just the plant name on the label. Hope this helps.
