    About Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’ (ParLove)

    Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’, released as ParLove, is a slim upright evergreen shrub carrying soft pink flowers along its full height. The leaves are small, glossy and closely spaced, and the column of growth stays narrow without training. Flowering begins in autumn and carries on through winter.

    It grows well in full sun to light shade in acidic, free draining soil with organic matter worked through. Annual growth of 30 to 60 centimetres means a screen fills quickly. Established plants tolerate light to moderate frost. Regular deep watering through the first two summers makes the difference to long term density.

    Use it along side boundaries, between neighbouring windows, in courtyard corners and in narrow beds where a normal hedge would crowd a path. The pink flowering gives softness that a clipped green screen lacks. For small blocks and townhouse builds, it solves privacy in a strip most plants cannot fill.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    About Slimline With Love Camellia

    What is Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’?

    It is a sasanqua camellia sold under the trade name ParLove, bred for a naturally narrow upright habit and abundant soft pink flowers. It is evergreen, keeps its glossy foliage year round, and flowers from autumn into winter. The main appeal is getting a tall screen from a plant that stays about a metre wide.

    How big does it get?

    Expect roughly 2.5 to 3 metres tall by about 1 to 1.5 metres wide at maturity in the ground. Height is easy to control by tipping the top once it reaches the level you want. Width needs almost no management, which is why it is specified for narrow beds and side passages.

    How fast does it grow?

    About 30 to 60 centimetres a year once established, which is at the faster end for camellias. In practice a screen from advanced stock will start giving useful privacy in the first or second season. Growth slows if the plant is short of water, so irrigation through the establishment period pays off directly.

    Can it grow in pots?

    Yes. The narrow habit suits tall planters and pots along a balcony or terrace. Use a container at least 45 to 50 centimetres wide, an acidic potting mix, and check that drainage holes stay clear. Water more often than you would a garden plant and feed with a controlled release fertiliser each spring.

    Is it evergreen?

    Yes, fully evergreen. The foliage stays on the plant right through winter, so the screen works every day of the year rather than only in the warm months. Old leaves shed gradually as new growth comes through in spring, but there is no point where the plant is bare or see through.

    Where does it grow best in Australia?

    It performs across cool temperate, warm temperate and subtropical zones, covering most of Victoria, New South Wales, southern Queensland, Tasmania, the Adelaide region and the cooler parts of Western Australia. Very hot dry inland sites and the wet tropics are the two areas where it is a poor choice.

    How do I care for it?

    Mulch well, water deeply once or twice a week through summer, and apply a camellia and azalea fertiliser after the last flowers drop. Tip prune at the same time if you want extra density. Avoid pruning from late summer onwards, since the buds forming then produce the following season's flowers.

    Planting Information

    How To Plant Your Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’ (ParLove) – Slimline With Love Camellia

    Site: Choose a well-drained position in full sun to part shade with room for the canopy to develop, or a large container in a bright spot.

    Hole: Dig twice as wide as the root ball and the same depth in garden beds. For pots, choose a container at least 50 centimetres wide and deep.

    Planting: Position level with the surrounding soil or potting mix, backfill gently, firm in, then water deeply to settle the roots.

    Recommended Planting Spacing For Your Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’ (ParLove) – Slimline With Love Camellia

    Long Term Care For Your Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’ (ParLove) – Slimline With Love Camellia

    Watering: Water deeply twice weekly through the first 12 months. Once established, keep the root zone consistently moist with weekly deep watering and additional water during hot dry spells.

    Mulching: Apply a 3 to 5 centimetre layer of organic mulch over the root zone in the garden, or a thin layer of decorative pebbles in pots, keeping it clear of the trunk.

    Pruning: Minimal pruning required. Light tip prune in late winter to maintain shape if used as hedging or screening. For a clear trunk feature, remove lower branches as the tree grows.

    Fertilising: Apply a slow-release general-purpose fertiliser in early spring and again in autumn for steady growth and consistent foliage colour.

    Pest and disease: Hardy against most pests and diseases. Occasional inspection for scale or sooty mould in warm humid conditions is all that's needed.

    Planting Your Camellia sasanqua ‘Slimline With Love’ (ParLove) – Slimline With Love Camellia in Different Soil

    Camellia sasanqua performs best in rich, well-drained loam with a slightly acidic pH and consistent moisture. Adaptable to a wide range of soils when drainage and organic matter are managed well.

    Sandy soil: Free-draining but enrich heavily with compost and mulch deeply to hold moisture.

    Clay soil: Improve drainage with gypsum and organic compost, and mound slightly to lift the root zone.

    Loam: The preferred soil for steady root development and consistent flowering.

    pH: Slightly acidic preferred. Mulch with composted leaf litter or pine bark to maintain levels naturally.
