Slimline Avalanche Camellia - Camellia sasanqua ‘Parava’
Most sasanquas need constant pruning to stay narrow. This one does not. Camellia sasanqua 'Parava' grows naturally upright and columnar, around a metre wide at maturity, which is why it turns up in the setback between a house and a fence where an ordinary camellia would push against both. From autumn into early winter it carries single white flowers with a boss of gold stamens, opening progressively over a long season rather than all at once.
Why Slimline Avalanche Camellia
Narrow Habit: Naturally columnar, so a hedge stays slim without hard annual reduction.
Autumn Flowering: Blooms from around March into June, filling the gap before winter colour arrives.
Sun Tolerance: Sasanquas take considerably more direct sun than japonica camellias.
Fine Leaf: Small glossy leaves knit into a tight, formal screen surface.
Root Behaviour: Fibrous and shallow rooted, so it is safe close to paving and footings.
Ideal Applications
Narrow Screening Hedge: The main use, giving a 3m screen barely a metre deep.
Espalier: Trains readily flat against a wall or wire frame.
Formal Entry Columns: Paired either side of a doorway for a clipped, upright accent.
Container Screening: Works in troughs along a balcony or terrace edge.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 0.8 to 1m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 1.5 to 2m
Best Planting Season: Autumn and spring, with autumn preferred in warm districts
Soil & Drainage: Slightly acidic, humus rich, freely draining soil, as camellias fail in alkaline or compacted ground
Establishment Care: Water twice weekly through the first summer and keep the shallow root system mulched year round. Feed with an azalea and camellia fertiliser after flowering finishes, and trim lightly in late spring if a tighter face is wanted.
