Camellia Sasanqua or winter camellia is a robust and vigorous evergreen shrub that is easy to grow.


Equipped with rather small and narrow leaves, as well as slightly perfumed flowers with semi-double corolla, with deep pink or white petals, the species was introduced in Europe in the mid-1700s. Soon exploited by hybridizers and nurserymen, both for its rusticity and for the value of flowering between October and March (depending on the variety), C. sasanqua has generated hundreds of new forms, often very different from each other. However, other species or natural hybrids are of great importance, first of all C. x hiemalis and C. x vernalis, two camellias still “suspected” of being natural variants of C. sasanqua. No less interesting is C. sinensis, which is not only the well-known tea plant, but also a splendid ornamental, especially due to its bushy habit with no prevalence of a single stem. And again: C. oleifera, which in the middle of winter is full of numerous white flowers; C. granthamiana, with flowers up to 14 cm wide which open towards Christmas; C. caudata, with not abundant but very attractive flowering.


INTERESTING FACTS


Camellia, unlike other flowers, will not wither completely, instead it dries petal by petal carefully and slowly until the end of its life. This is what you can say about your ideal companion, in fact the camellia flower symbolizes ideal love.
