Camellia sasanqua 'Paradise Blush' Trellis
From late autumn to early winter, it produces an abundance of semi-double blooms with delicate white petals edged in a soft pink blush. The dense, glossy dark green foliage provides a rich backdrop that enhances the beauty of the vibrant flowers.
Cultural
Camellia sasanqua prefer a position in full sun to partial shade, thriving in well-drained, acidic soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. While they favour acidic conditions, sasanquas will tolerate other soil types as long as there is good drainage. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, to maintain healthy growth. In early spring, apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser formulated for acid-loving plants to encourage new growth. Light pruning is recommended after flowering to maintain the plant’s shape and remove any dead or diseased wood, ensuring not to cut off developing buds. Keep an eye out for common pests such as aphids, spider mites, and scale insects, and take appropriate measures to manage them.
Landscape Uses
Trellised plants are the perfect solution for small courtyards, balconies and narrow garden beds that share a border with a wall or fence. They also work great for narrow screening or to decorate an unsightly wall or fence.
