The Camellia is native to Asia, specifically Japan, China, and Korea. It is believed to have been first cultivated in China over a thousand years ago and was later introduced to Japan and Korea. The plant was highly valued in Asian cultures for its beauty and for the oil that can be extracted from its seeds.  In the 17th and 18th centuries, Camellias were introduced to Europe by traders and botanists where they quickly became popular amongst the upper classes as a symbol of wealth and prestige.
