Camellia Fairy Blush

Camellia sasanqua Fairy Blush is a charming evergreen shrub that's a real showstopper from early spring right through to early winter. With its blush-pink flowers centred by sunny yellow stamens, this slender and upright camellia is as versatile as it is beautiful. Whether you're after a neat hedge, a statement pot plant or a standalone beauty, Fairy Blush has got you covered.

The shrub sports green leaves with a hint of red in the stems, and it has a slightly drooping, or pendulous, character. It's not too fussy about soil; just make sure it's free-draining and rich in organic goodies. It's happy in full sun or shade and grows to a manageable size of about 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide - perfect for smaller gardens and cosy courtyards.
