| Botanical Name | Camellia sasanqua 'Shi Shi Gashira' |
| Description | A beloved fall and winter blooming staple for the Willis and Houston metro area. Known for its compact, spreading habit and prolific hot pink flowers. While more sun-tolerant than japonica varieties, it still requires acidic, well-draining soil. In heavy Houston clay, we strongly recommend planting in raised beds or amended soil to ensure the roots do not remain saturated during wet periods. |
| Exposure | Full sun to partial shade (performs best with filtered light or morning sun). |
| Height x Width | 4-5 ft. Tall x 6-8 ft. Wide |
| Water | Moderate; prefers consistent moisture but is relatively drought-tolerant once established in the landscape. |
| 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 |
