Notes: Tall Stewartia is an excellent species for bonsai culture with its beautiful bark, summertime white flowers and super fine twigs. I have seen them growing in full sun in Japan in garden, though I grow mine under 30% shade due to the hot dry summer climate of the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.
