Camellia sasanqua 'Seventh Desire'

The double flowers of this variety are cerise pink with a small boss of stamens in the center. The petals are notched and crinkled making each bloom a treat to look at closely. The plant has vigorous growth which tends to weep at the branch tips making an interesting plant form. This one blooms very early and can carpet the ground with pink petals.
