Camellia sasanquas are popular evergreen shrubs or small trees with small, glossy green foliage and showy flowers. Sasanquas can tolerate more direct sunlight than Camellia japonica. These are long lived, tough and widely used for hedging, as feature plants and for topiary and espalier. Shishi Gashira has strong, dense dark-green foliage and is ideal for hedging or in a container. Beautiful medium semi-double flowers are pinkish-red.
