Camellia Setsugekka is one of the most popular and widely grown sasanqua camellias, admired for its magnificent white flowers, elegantly wavy petals, and glossy green foliage. Flow ering from late summer through to early winter, it brings a long-lasting display of colour and beauty to the garden at a time when many other plants are beginning to slow down. The large, semi-double blooms are highlighted by prominent golden stamens, creating a striking contrast against the deep green foliage. A hardy and relatively fast-growing variety, Setsugekka develops into a dense evergreen shrub that can also be trained into a small tree over time. It is particularly valued for its tolerance of sunny positions, making it more versatile than many other camellias. Its upright growth habit makes it ideal for hedging, screening, espalier work, feature planting, and large containers. Soil: Well-drained, slightly acidic soil. A potting mix rich with peat moss or humus is ideal when added at the time of planting.Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Drought and coastal hardy. Moderate frost tolerance. Show more
