Long Description

Sasanqua Camellia is a versatile evergreen shrub valued for its refined foliage, graceful growth habit, and abundant fall flowering. With smaller leaves than many other camellias, it creates a polished look in the landscape while providing year-round greenery.

Sasanquas are especially useful for hedges, privacy screens, foundation plantings, woodland borders, and specimen areas. They generally tolerate more sun than many other camellias, though they still perform best with protection from intense afternoon heat. Many varieties also offer lightly fragrant flowers during the fall season.

Sold in a 3-gallon container, Sasanqua Camellia is a beautiful choice for adding evergreen structure and seasonal interest to Metro Atlanta landscapes.
