Southern Living camellias were chosen for today’s landscapes with:
Extended bloom seasons — from October Magic® sasanquas that flower in fall through spring, to show-stopping japonicas that brighten the late season.
Compact, versatile habits — ideal for foundation plantings, containers, borders, or as elegant hedges.
Exceptional performance — selected to thrive in Southern climates, with improved disease resistance, heat tolerance, and adaptability.
Timeless Southern style — glossy foliage and blooms in pink, red, and white hues that bring warmth and welcome to porches, patios, and garden paths.
