Camellias are native to eastern and southern Asia. In 1819 they were introduced to gardens in the American South where they have become well established winter blooming shrubs, adding a colorful note to the landscape with their showy flowers. One economically important member of the camellia family is Camellia sinensis, or the tea plant.
