Camellia sasanqua 'Jennifer Susan' Ball
'Jennifer Susan' is a charming variety of Camellia sasanqua, featuring delicate, semi-double blooms with soft pink petals and golden stamens. The glossy, dark green foliage provides an elegant backdrop to the profusion of blooms, creating a stunning display in the autumn to winter months.
Cultural
Sasanquas love to grow in a warm full sun to partly shaded position. Prune after flowering and in Summer to maintain a compact shape. Once established sasanquas will grow in most soil types, however, they prefer a well drained slightly acidic soil. Once established they are quite drought tolerant. Fertilise in late Spring and Summer with a specific Camellia fertiliser or a complete organic fertiliser.
Landscape Uses
Topiary balls are ideal for formal gardens or modern Japanese gardens, though can add structure to any garden. They are great planted in clusters, or used in pots to frame an entrance or walkway. In Autumn and early Winter the sasanquas abundance of flowers will add colour and texture to your garden.
