1. Single petals are arranged in 1 ~ 2 rounds, with 5 ~ 7 petals connected at the base, mostly tubular. The pistil and stamen are fully developed and can bear fruit.

(1) single valve type: features as above.

(1) Semidouble petal type: Petals are arranged in 2-4 rounds, stamens and stamens are mostly concentrated in the center of flowers, and most stamens tend to degenerate and occasionally bear fruit. Such as' white cotton ball' and' scarlet peony'.

(2) Five-star type: petals are arranged in 2-3 rounds, corolla is five-star, stamens exist, and pistils tend to degenerate. Such as' Oriental Tea'.

So far, the United States, Britain, Japan, Australia and Italy have developed rapidly in the breeding, reproduction and production of camellia, and have entered the stage of industrial production, and interspecific and interspecific hybrids and new varieties are constantly on the market.

Camellia cultivation has a long history in China. Camellia has been planted since the Southern Dynasties. Camellia was cultivated as a precious flower in the Tang Dynasty. By the Song Dynasty, it was very popular to grow camellias. Camellia from Wenzhou was introduced to Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty and developed rapidly. The History of Flowers in Ming Dynasty described and classified the varieties of camellia. In the Qing Dynasty, camellia was cultivated more vigorously, and varieties of camellia came out continuously. Since 1949, the cultivation level of camellia in China has been improved to some extent, and the variety selection has developed. There are more than 300 kinds of camellias in China.
