'Origin of Camellia' presents a fascinating journey through the remarkable history and influence of one of the world's most significant plant families. This comprehensive exploration reveals how camellias have shaped human civilization through two primary roles: as the source of tea, the world's most consumed beverage, and as prized ornamental flowers that have graced gardens worldwide.

From its origins in Southeast Asian forests, where over 200 species evolved, to its transformation of European garden aesthetics, the camellia's story interweaves botanical science, cultural practices, and global commerce. The book progresses naturally through three main sections, beginning with a detailed examination of camellia biology and evolution, supported by recent genetic research. It then delves into the fascinating history of tea cultivation, tracing how Camellia sinensis spread from ancient Chinese medicinal uses to become a global commodity.

The final section chronicles the development of ornamental varieties and their profound impact on garden design since the 17th century, highlighting how selective breeding has produced thousands of cultivars. What makes this work particularly valuable is its multidisciplinary approach, combining botanical expertise with cultural history and practical gardening guidance. Drawing from extensive historical documents and contemporary research, it offers both scientific insights and practical cultivation advice. The book serves multiple audiences, from serious botanists and horticulturists to tea enthusiasts and home gardeners, while addressing current challenges in camellia conservation and species preservation.
