More than 1,000 camellia flowers that were grown in five Southern states were displayed at the 76thAnnual Camellia Show held last month in Pensacola, Fla.
Two local hobbyist groups hosted the event in cooperation with the American Camellia Society. Camellia, or tsubaki in Japanese, have been popular in the South. As a matter of fact, tea plants are part of the camellia family variety known as camellia sinensis, which was first brought to the U.S. in the Savannah, Ga. and Charleston, S.C. areas to be used for establishing tea plantations.
There are many varieties of camellia and the majority of them at the show were of the japonica variety that originated from Japan and China. Camellia japonica was brought to Europe from Asia around the 16thcentury and imported to the U.S. in the 18thcentury.
At the show, 78 flowers received awards based on the size, color and type and were also divided into outdoor grown and indoor (greenhouse) grown.
One of the visitors, Millie Sakata from San Diego, said, “Some camellia are more than six inches in diameter and resemble a peony and some remind me of carnations. What a variety!”
According to the chairperson of the show, Skip Vogelsang, the growers cut the best bloomed flowers four days before the show and kept them in a sealed container in a refrigerator until the day of the show to present them in their best condition.
