There is a lot of information available on the internet. A Yahoo search for "camellia care" (include the quotation marks in the Yahoo search box) yields 463 results. If you do the same search, and are willing to spend a little time exploring, I'm sure that you will quickly find lots of useful and interesting information.
Good luck with your search.

Camellias, from the tea family, are hardy to at least Zone 7 (some are good to Zone 5), and they do bloom most of the winter here in north Georgia. If you meant the kind of Rhododendron "Cammilla's Blush", which is a deciduous azalea, that's good from Zones 5 to 7, and blooms in April.
Camellias generally do OK in containers, but don't let them get too much sun, and don't let them get too dry. They are beautiful!

They are a semi-tropical plant so the patio must not get below 50-55 degrees. It must be bright but not in direct sun. If your patio has these conditions they you probably can grow it. Cut your fertilizations in half during the winter.
