Camellia Sasanqua 
The popularity of Camellia Sasanqua has grown 
tremendously in the past decade. It is one of the 
newer and finer broad-leaved evergreens. It is 
similar to Camellia Japonica, but looser and faster 
growing. This fine evergreen shrub has small, 
shiny dark green foliage and slender branches. Very 
profuse bloomers with the flowers opening from 
September through December, a time when not 
many flowers are to be had. 
The Sasanqua is very satisfactory for landscape 
work. They can be used as individual specimens, in 
foundation plantings, and for hedges and_ their 
popularity is only just beginning. They are very 
hardy and can be grown in the latitude of Memphis, 
Tenn., Birmingham, Ala., Atlanta, Ga., and Char- 
lotte, N. C., without protection. 
Because of its hardiness, the Sasanqua can be 
used in a much wider territory than the Japonica. 
It grows in more different soils and withstands to a 
greater degree excess or lack of moisture, fertiliza- 
tion, etc. There is a large and growing demand for 
Sasanqua as understock for grafting, and it is prob- 
ably the best understock. In our opinion there is no 
plant more suitable for southern gardens than the 
Sasanqua.
