Camellia sasanqua 'Yuletide'
An early flowering Camellia bearing abundant, small bright red, single flowers with prominent golden stamens on a dense upright bush.
Cultural
Sasanquas love to grow in a warm, partly shaded position. Prune after flowering and in Summer to maintain a compact shape. Once established sasanquas will grow in most soil types, however, they prefer a well drained slightly acidic soil. Once established they are quite drought tolerant. Fertilise in late Spring and Summer with a specific Camellia fertiliser or a complete organic fertiliser.
Landscape Uses
Ideal for screens, hedges, large containers, espaliers, topiary and as general flowering garden plants. The perfect plant for nearly all garden styles.
