| Botanical Name | Camellia sasanqua 'Yuletide' |
| Description | A seasonal showstopper in the Willis and Houston metro area, 'Yuletide' is famous for its perfectly timed Christmas-red blooms. This upright, compact sasanqua variety is more sun-tolerant than japonicas but still requires acidic, well-draining soil. To succeed in our local heavy clay, plant in raised beds with organic matter to ensure the roots stay aerated and healthy. |
| Exposure | Full sun to partial shade (Filtered afternoon shade is best in Texas) |
| Height x Width | 8-10 ft. Tall x 6-8 ft. Wide |
| Water | Moderate; keep soil consistently moist. Applying pine bark mulch is essential to protect the shallow root system from the intense Houston summer heat. |
| Zones | 7 - 10 |
| Fertilization | Apply an acid-loving plant fertilizer in early spring after the blooming cycle has completed. |
| Pruning | Prune after flowering in late winter or early spring to maintain a tidy shape or desired height. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
