Professor Sargent Camellia

Professor Sargent Camellia focuses on form and depth, with full, layered red blooms that sit neatly against dark, glossy foliage. The flowers are rounded and tightly petaled, giving them a substantial, almost sculpted look. Its branching builds a dense structure, allowing the plant to hold its shape clearly without gaps. Reaching about 6 to 10 feet tall and spreading 5 to 8 feet wide at maturity, it develops a solid, upright presence that works well in borders, screens, and foundation plantings.
