Join us for Tea on the Porch and a chance to visit with other camellia lovers as well as all garden visitors.
For our June 2024 meeting, Dr. Brenda Litchfield will give a presentation on the Gardens and Flora of Asia. Dr. Litchfield is a member of The American Camellia Society (ACS) Board of Directors, and also serves on the ACS Membership Committee, the ACS Publications Committee, and the ACS Silver Center Educational Display Committee. She has traveled extensively in Asia, and she visited numerous camellia nurseries and research facilities in Asia. Her presentation should be an interesting look at how camellias are cultivated and propagated in their native land of Asia.
At our July meeting, John Gentry will give a presentation on Camellias registered from the Savannah area including information about the plant and its originator. This should be an interesting talk for anyone that lives in or around Savannah and has an interest in camellias!
Paul Greenway is a member of the Aiken, SC Camellia Society, and an avid camellia grower. He wins awards frequently at regional camellia shows, and is often a featured speaker at camellia events. He will be speaking at our August 11th meeting about "Backyard Camellia Growing". This should be an interesting and educational presentation for all of us who enjoy growing and sharing this popular flower!
