Description

Bring elegance and vibrant colour to your garden with the Camellia sasanqua 'Chansonette'. Aptly named 'Chansonette,' meaning Little Song, this evergreen shrub delights with a profusion of large, double pink flowers from autumn through winter. Its glossy, dark green foliage and graceful, spreading habit make it a versatile addition to any garden design—ideal for creating a flowering hedge, brightening containers, or standing out as a feature plant.

Features:

✅ Produces abundant double pink blooms during the cooler months
✅ Year-round interest with dense, glossy evergreen leaves
✅ Versatile use: perfect for hedges, pots, or as a focal point in garden beds
✅ Reaches up to 3 metres in height with a spreading growth habit
✅ Low-maintenance with long-lasting seasonal colour

Growing Conditions:

🌱 Light: Prefers partial shade but can handle full sun with adequate watering
💧 Water: Regular watering during establishment; more drought-tolerant once mature
🌿 Soil: Thrives in lime-free, well-draining, slightly acidic soil rich in organic matter
🌡️ Climate Suitability: Grows well in most temperate and subtropical regions of Australia, including NSW, VIC, TAS, SA, southern QLD, and parts of WA. A sheltered location helps protect blooms and promote lush growth.
✂️ Pruning: Light trimming after flowering encourages compact, bushy growth

Why You Should Buy:

✔️ Provides vibrant blooms when most plants are dormant
✔️ Offers versatile landscaping options from hedges to feature plants
✔️ Low-maintenance with high visual impact throughout the year

Supplied in 42mm Pots
