Shishi Gashira Camellia — Hot Pink Blooms & Glossy Evergreen Foliage

Enjoy vibrant hot pink double blooms from fall through early spring with the Shishi Gashira Camellia. This low-maintenance evergreen shrub boasts glossy dark green leaves, excellent cold tolerance, and a compact size that’s perfect for borders, hedges, or containers.

Beginning in late fall to early spring, the Shi shi Camellia’s flower blossoms will open up to reveal their majestic colors. With hot pink flower blooms that have a golden yellow center and glossy evergreen foliage to contrast the blossoms, and stay dark green all year long, what is not to love.

The Shishi plant’s showy flower buds will remain blooming for a month or two and also make attractive cut flowers for vases. They are 2-3 inches in length and have been a pretty popular sasanqua camellia variety because of the long bloom times.

The dwarf Camellia sasanqua ‘Shishi Gashira’ looks amazing planted as an evergreen shrub hedge, small specimen tree, or in a woodland garden along a wall or fence where the dark pink double flowers can be enjoyed.

Shishi Camellia Care Guide

The Shi Shi Gashira Camellia is an easy-to-grow, long-lived flowering shrub that thrives in USDA hardiness zones 7–10, making it a popular choice for gardeners looking to buy camellias online for year-round beauty. Adaptable to full sun or part shade, this camellia performs best in well-draining, acidic soil and rewards growers with vibrant blooms when many plants are dormant. Its moderate growth rate and 4–5 ft. mature height make it ideal for smaller gardens, foundation plantings, or creating a low camellia hedge. With proper watering, mulching, and occasional feeding, Camellia japonica delivers reliable color and structure to any landscape for decades.

Ideal USDA Zones: Best grown in zones 7–10, thriving in mild to warm climates across the U.S.
Light & Soil Needs: Prefers full sun to part shade with well-draining, acidic soil; filtered light is ideal in hot regions.
Acid-Loving Plant: Maintain soil pH below 7 using peat moss, used coffee grounds, or by purchasing an acidic soil potting mix for sale.
Mature Size: Reaches 4–5 ft. tall and 6–8 ft. wide, with a moderate growth rate suited for compact landscapes.
Spacing for Hedges: Plant 3–4 ft. apart to form a dense, colorful Shi Shi Camellia hedge.
