Camellia, Cleopatra

'Cleopatra' Camellia Sasanqua

The Cleopatra Camellia, one of the more prolific fall bloomers in our gardens, bears semi-double, soft rose-pink blooms for a long time in the fall and early winter. She grows into a compact, rounded, evergreen shrub with glossy, serrated, dark green leaves that are elliptic to oblong and make the ideal background for the lovely flowers. You may be sure that this one will stand out in your fall landscape! Find out everything below.
