Camellia belongs to Camellia of Theaceae, and is a twin sister with tea, camellia, Nanshan tea, camellia oleifera and camellia. The flowers of Camellia chrysantha are golden and dazzling, as if coated with wax, glittering and translucent and oily. Camellia is born alone in the axils of leaves. When flowering, it is cup-shaped, pot-shaped or bowl-shaped, which is beautiful and generous. In the past, people have never seen a golden variety. 1960, Chinese scientists first discovered a camellia, named camellia, in Nanning, Guangxi. Foreign countries call it the magical oriental tea, which is known as the "giant panda in the plant world" and the "queen of tea family".

Camellia japonica is an ancient plant, which is extremely rare and its distribution range is extremely narrow. 90% of the wild camellia in the world is only distributed in Lanshan branch of Shiwan Mountain in Fangchenggang City, China, and grows below 700 meters above sea level, especially within the range of 200-500 meters above sea level. The lower limit of vertical distribution is about 20 meters above sea level. For example, in the coastal hilly platform near Dawangjiang, Fangcheng County, there is still camellia distributed. The upper limit of vertical distribution can reach 890 meters above sea level. For example, you can still see some camellia with small petals in Natao Mountain in Ningming County, which is a rare and precious plant in the world.
