SASANQUA CAMELLIAS 
Known in Japan as Kotusubaki, Camellia Sasanqua, and its forms, are 
of real garden interest. The plants flower in early fall, have small glossy 
green foliage and produce flowers which are suggestive in form of a wild 
rose. Because of their rapid growth, the plants are useful for hedges and 
screen plantings as well as for specimen use. These picturesque shrubs are 
rather open in their growth and do best when planted in full sun.
