Camellia sasangua Espalier

Forms evergreen bushes which have the same habit and size as C. japonica. They are equally resistant to the cold, but the buds are less subject to frost damage, as they open from September to January when frosts are less frequent. Tolerates the sun (but not the extreme heat of a city balcony in the Italian sun). Makes beautiful hedges which flower in a period when there not many other plants are flowering.
