| Here is a picture of the corner of my shaded backyard, (note the those every green has been removed).

I have bought 4 camellia's there..
Nuccio's Gem
Betty Sheffield Supreme
camellia mathotiana
camellia debutante
They are 5 gallon versions. I have already put one in the corner and another one spaced 3 feet away from it, and picked the middle of the width between the fence and the brick.
Instead of putting all 4 trees soldier/nursery style is there a better way to do this? I am just cannot visualize the look as I don't know how they will grow to become. Will I eventually have thick wall of camellia bushes?
Should I try to train one into a raised trunk tree like structure by removing all the overall structures?
What can I plant in front of the camellia's so it's not as dull looking in the next few years?
BTW, the debutante is about 150% the size of the other camellias even they are 5 Gallons. The spacing guide says to leave more space for it 6-8 ft comparing to the other ones. Do they grow faster?
Any ideas is appreciated, thanks.
