Camellia Yuletide, one of the most beautiful red-flowering sasanquas, is our Christmas camellia - it blooms in Advent and into March.
Its bright, light red, small, simple flowers with distinctive, golden yellow stamens look delightful and harmonize beautifully with the narrow, deep dark green leaves. In addition, thanks to their particularly strong, waxy texture, the flowers can withstand temperatures below zero without turning brown and bloom profusely and reliably over a very long period of time.
Yuletide has an upright, dense and bushy habit and grows rather slowly.
Like all autumn-flowering camellias, it is characterized by very good winter hardiness and also tolerates significantly sunnier locations than Camellia japonica. Bees and other insects enjoy this food source in late fall and early winter.
In 1974 she received a special award: the " Ralph Peer Sasanqua Seedling Award".

Always well packaged
How we ship
Quality testing
Each camellia is carefully checked before shipping and, in addition to the plant passport, receives a weatherproof aluminum variety label.
No drying out
Each plant is watered thoroughly before shipping. The plant pot is then covered with a plastic bag to prevent the root ball from drying out.
Protectively packaged
The camellia is then carefully wrapped in newspaper or wrapping paper so that the leaves, buds and flowers are well protected.
No slipping
The camellia is fixed in the cardboard box so that it cannot slip.
Shatterproof cardboard boxes
Our camellias are shipped in specially made, sturdy cardboard boxes and can therefore arrive to you intact and in excellent condition.
Safe in the truck
We ship particularly large camellias via a shipping company. Here too, the plants are excellently packaged.
Freight forwarding delivery
For very large camellias with a height of 1.50 to 2.30 meters, shipping is carried out by a shipping company. The very well packaged camellia is transported standing on a Euro pallet. The delivery time within Germany is 2-3 days; within Europe up to 1 week. The transport costs are calculated individually depending on where you live. Please contact us by phone or email before ordering.
About Us
I bought my first camellia over 20 years ago. At that time I had my office next to the Palmengarten in Frankfurt and regularly visited the various plant exhibitions. This also applies to the camellia exhibition in February. I was enchanted by the blaze of color, the wonderful flower shapes and the elegant habit of the camellias and couldn't decide which of the many I should take home with me. It was difficult to choose the most beautiful camellia from such a variety. For me it became Jury's Yellow, which accompanied me for many years and even endured on our roof terrace during the particularly hot summer of 2003.
