Because my camellias are only 2 yo shrubs (less expensive) I am protecting them well. It's probably a good idea anyway. The white sheeting is polypropylene which is porous to let light and water in but it prevents bursting of the branches from first morning sunlight and it helps to trap the house's warmth. I used the typical green shrub cover on Winter's Joy camellia by the fence and it's doing pretty well too. The third method I'm trying is to overwinter Kuro Delght and Korean Fire inside the plastic green house. They are the least happy but surviving.
