Camellia sasanqua 'Autumn Sentinel'
2 year old plant.

This striking plant has a very narrow upright growth habit with distinctive foliage. The leaves are small, narrow and dark green and with a compact habit, create a very attractive plant for a hedge or specimen. The plant grows quickly and the pale pink blooms come early in the season (October) and are small and double. This plant comes from Bobby Green in southern Alabama but has grown well in NC for several years.  It is formerly known as 'Bob Green'.

Camellia japonica 'Autumn Mist'
2 year old plant.

This fall blooming C. japonica starts the season by opening large pure white blooms and as the weather cools, the single flowers gain more pink pigment. Most of the pink is at the edges of the petals and gradually fades towards the center of the bloom. The stamens are held in a tight cylinder. The leaves are rather large and the plant is upright growing. Blooming starts in October most years and will continue into winter. ('Bernice Boddy' x 'Daikagura')

Zone 7A

A Camellia Forest Introduction.
2 year old plant.

This vigorous shrub has large white flowers with petals tinged with pink and it blooms freely in early autumn. About 30 years ago, we planted over 1,000 C. sasanqua x C. oleifera segregates in a very large, unprotected field known as Mason Farm near Chapel Hill. This individual was selected because it survived our coldest winter ever without any injury. The leaves are large, thick and leathery and occasionally yellow-white genetic variegation appears on leaves on scattered twigs. (C. oleifera x C. sasanqua F2 segregate)
