Camellia Hiemalis ‘Hiryu’ (Hiryu Sasanqua Camellia)

Camellia Hiemalis ‘Hiryu’ is a vigorous evergreen shrub prized for its abundant deep rose-pink flowers, which range from single to semi-double and feature prominent golden-yellow stamens. The vibrant blooms contrast beautifully against glossy, dark green foliage, creating an impressive display from autumn well into winter when many other garden plants provide little colour.

Ideal for hedging, screening, espalier, large containers or feature planting, ‘Hiryu’ develops into a tall, densely foliaged shrub that responds well to shaping. It tolerates full sun or part shade and performs best in fertile, slightly acidic, freely draining soil with its root zone kept cool and evenly moist. Customers will appreciate its dependable evergreen coverage, cold-season flowers and versatility throughout formal and informal landscapes.
