Camellia japonica 'Autumn Mist' Cornus elliptica = Cornus angustata, Evergreen Dogwood
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.
The July display of a mature tree is quite long-lasting and breathtaking.   The entire tree is covered with white flowers for a couple of weeks in mid-summer.   The blooms are followed by large red fruits which are edible.   This was originally listed on the website as Cornus elongata

Camellia sasanqua 'Slim 'n Trim'
3 year old plant.

I am revising my judgment on this plant-it is not a dwarf; it is a small-leaved form with slow to moderate growth. The leaves are narrow and tiny with short internodes so a very dense plant results but my ten year old plant is over six feet tall now. The small flowers are deep rose pink and single. This is useful for confined spaces since it stays very narrow and upright.

3 year old plant.

This fine white sasanqua has formal double flowers and super vigorous growth. The blooms start early and are very showy in the garden. The plant has a narrow upright form and is a good choice for a hedge.

Prunus mume 'Bridal Veil', Japanese Flowering Apricot
A weeping Mume with very pale pink blooms on gently down-arching branches.   Strongly scented flowers make this an outstanding and unusual cultivar selected from hundreds of seedlings.   Without staking my plant has mounded up to 10 feet tall and 20 feet across in 10 years.  

Zone 6
[25'T x 25'W]

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)
