The Snow on the Mountain Camellia (Camellia sasanqua 'Snow on the Mountain') is a captivating evergreen shrub that offers an abundance of stunning flowers and attractive foliage.
The Snow on the Mountain Camellia is a medium-sized, evergreen shrub native to Japan. It is well-suited for USDA hardiness zones 7 through 9 and thrives in acidic, well-drained soil with partial shade. The plant grows at a moderate rate, reaching a mature height of 5 to 6 feet and a spread of 6 to 9 feet. It boasts a dense, bushy habit, making it an excellent choice for hedges, borders, or as a specimen plant in the garden.
One of the most striking features of the Snow on the Mountain Camellia is its spectacular display of flowers. The plant produces an abundance of large, semi-double, white blooms with a delicate arrangement of petals surrounding a golden-yellow center. The flowers appear in late fall through early winter, offering a stunning contrast against the dark green foliage at a time when many other plants have finished flowering.
The blooms not only add visual interest to the garden, but they also attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, providing a valuable resource for these beneficial insects during the cooler months.
The foliage of the Snow on the Mountain Camellia is equally as captivating as its flowers. The plant features glossy, dark green leaves that provide a striking backdrop for the white blooms. The leaves are elliptical in shape and grow in an alternate arrangement along the stems. Their evergreen nature ensures year-round interest, making this camellia a valuable addition to the garden.
