    Sasanqua Camellia, Autumn Camellia 'Yuletide'
    Camellia sasanqua

    Supposed to bloom about Christmas time, I guess, but mine (potted and brought into greenhouse for winter) always blooms in November. Very pronounced golden stamens on a single flower.

    Hi Susan,

    I'm surprised no one commented on this thread. My husband presented me with a Camellia 'Yuletide' two years ago, and every winter I look forward to seeing the pretty blossoms. You're to be congratulated for a swell picture.

    Thanks, Pat.
    I wish mine would bloom a little later than it does, so that I could have it at Christmas...it usually is done sometime in November. I really love it, though. Mine is potted and is getting really big. I should start a cutting I guess and eventually get rid of the big plant. The dark glossy leaves are attractive all year, which is nice.

    Hi Susan, I just purchased a large plant and will keep it potted. I love this camellia. I live in a RV and am retired. I sold many homes in my lifetime to move on. At each of these homes I planted this camellia and a Sweet Olive Tree. They are the loves of my life, second only to my grandchildren. I could look at your photo all day and if I could make a screensaver out of it I would. I thank you for having the website. Kathleen

    I planted this camilla 4 years ago. There were a few blooms the first year and none since. Does anyone have any idea why the plant is not blooming?
