If it is beautiful white flowers that you are after, Paradise Helen is a very popular, low to medium growing variety with very dense foliage. Slimline Avalanche is slender growing with an ‘avalanche’ of stunning clear white flowers, ideal where flowers are needed in a narrow space.  Paradise Little Liane is a low growing variety, perfectly suited to low hedging around the 1-1.5m mark.

If you love some colour, but still like a softer feel, look out for varieties which have two-tone flowers. Paradise Blush is an oldie but a goody! As the name suggests, the flowers are a blushed pink colour and the habit is perfect for hedging or screening. Paradise Sayaka is similar in colour to Paradise Blush, but with a more arching habit. For a very fast, upright growth - perfect for hiding a shed or a nosy neighbour - Paradise Katie provides a gorgeous display of very large, bi-colour single blooms, which are white with pink edging on each petal and bright yellow stamens and petaloids.

If a splash of pink is more your style, there are plenty to choose from. Just a couple of our favourites, try Slimline With Love for narrow spaces and for low hedging (1-1.5m) you can’t go past Petite Pink.

Petite Pink

Red is not a common colour in Camellia sasanqua, however recent breeding has seen the creation of several very dark coloured flowers.  For some big bold blooms, Paradise Ann has medium sized full blooms. Paradise Crimson Belle is one of the earliest Camellias to flower (starting in March in NSW) with lots and lots of eye-catching single blooms. Paradise Isabella is a very fast and upright grower, perfect for quick screening to 3m+ and has elegant double blooms.

So, depending on your style, put in a big block of your favourite coloured sasanquas or mix it up with several different colours for a kaleidoscope of autumn into winter cheer!
