About this Camellia cultivar
Camellia sasanqua 'Chansonette' is a distinctive sasanqua camellia valued for its low, cascading to weeping habit and abundant fall display. It is commonly sold as a dwarf or weeping camellia and is especially useful for groundcover plantings, banks, walls, and cascading landscape effects. The flowers are medium-sized, soft pink to deep pink, with a loose peony to semi-double appearance created by many petals and visible golden stamens. Like many sasanqua camellias, it bears small, glossy evergreen foliage and typically blooms early in the camellia season, from autumn into early winter.
