About this collection
Camellia
Camellia is the shade flowering shrub that also clips, which is a rare combination and the reason it appears on so many courtyard and screen schedules. The range is led by Camellia sasanqua in its named forms, 'Weroona', 'Something Special', 'Showa No Sakae' and 'Shell Pink', with species material including Camellia crapnelliana.
Sasanqua takes far more sun and wind than the japonica types and is the correct choice for a hedge; japonica belongs in deep shade with shelter. Confirm which group a selection belongs to before specifying the position. Camellia carries the winter flowering heroes range almost single handed, and azaleas are the companion group for the same shaded, acid conditions.
