Camellia

The state flower of Alabama, and in the language of flowers, the Camellia denotes admiration and perfection. Their winter blooming habit makes them highly desirable as they provide color and beauty during the months most flowering plants are dormant. It is a girl's name as well, although not very popular. Some say it is the American equivalent of Amelia. They are found in tropical areas in Eastern and Southern Asia. They are popular ornamental, tea and woody-oil plants that have been cultivated throughout the world for centuries.
