» English Description
Fendig, 1951, American Camellia Catalogue, erroneously as ‘Oranda Gasa’ and, in 1953 as ‘Oranda Gasa (2)’: Large, light rose-pink, darker at centre of flower, fluted single, 10 cm across. There are 6 almost round petals about 5 cm in diameter with wavy margins and crêpe texture. The central stamens, occasionally replaced in part by petaloids, are in a central wreath nearly 5 cm. across. Filaments are slim with yellow anthers. Leaves, medium dark green, 8 cm x 3.7 cm; apex short acute, recurved; base cuneate; venation recessed; closely and shallowly serrate. Erect, vigorous growth. Mid-season blooming. Note: This Camellia was imported to America by McIlhenny and listed in his 1937 catalogue as ‘Orando-gasa’. However it appears to be a pink sport of the original cultivar.
