About

Beautiful camellias require little attention, once established, and yet there is so much to know about them. This Growing Camellias course from Warnborough College is a wonderful way of learning about the different groups of camellias (eg. japonicas, sasanquas, reticulatas), their special characteristics, and their culture.

Overview

Camellias are a hardy group of plants that are grown from cool temperate climates through to tropical regions. While many Camellia species are highly adaptable, the best results are generally achieved by choosing cultivars to suit the climate and conditions you are growing them in.

Tea leaves are derived from the plant Camellia sinensis, a species that does well in tropical and sub tropical conditions. Other species, (eg. Camellia reticulata) does not adapt so well to warm climates, and is generally far better in a cool temperate climate. Camellia oleifera is another species grown as a commercial crop oil from this species is used commercially in china.

The three most common ornamental species are:

  • Camellia japonica mainly bred varieties from the original, smaller flowered species.
  • Camellia sasanqua species from Japan, smaller flowers than C. japonica.
  • Camellia reticulata species from China.
