Camellia Setsugekka 300mm

Camellia sasanqua Setsugekka is a stunning evergreen camellia renowned for its large, semi-double white flowers with beautifully ruffled petals and prominent golden-yellow stamens. Flowering generously through autumn and into winter, the crisp white blooms create a spectacular contrast against its glossy, deep green foliage.

With its attractive upright and bushy growth habit, Setsugekka is an excellent choice for hedging, screening, feature planting, garden beds or large decorative pots. It can also be trained as an espalier, making it a versatile option for adding year-round greenery and elegant seasonal colour to the garden.

Plant in a sunny to partly shaded position in well-drained, slightly acidic soil enriched with organic matter. Once established, Setsugekka is a hardy and rewarding camellia that can develop into an impressive garden feature.

Tip: If growing Setsugekka as a hedge, prune lightly after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage dense, bushy growth. Mulch around the root zone to retain moisture and keep the roots cool, making sure the mulch is kept away from the trunk.
