Camellia sasanqua ‘Fairy Blush’ Description

Camellia sasanqua ‘Fairy Blush’ forms a vigorous evergreen shrub with an upright, open habit and small, finely serrated green leaves. Bright pink buds open over a long period into clusters of single, lightly fragrant flowers, each white with a soft blossom-pink flush and visible golden stamens. Flowering commonly begins in late winter and continues into early spring. Grow in partial shade or gentle sun in fertile acidic soil that remains moist but drains freely. It can be clipped into an informal hedge or allowed to develop as a graceful specimen. A sheltered position is advisable in Ireland, as cold winds and hard frost may damage the early flowers. Prune lightly after flowering if required.
