Camellia season kicks off with a weekend of events highlighting the winter-blooming flower with a workshop discussing growing camellias, from propagation to care, on Saturday, Feb. 6 and a lecture and reception on Sunday, Feb. 7. Each event includes a special guided Camellia Walk.
Commencing Tuesday, February 9 through March 19, Camellia Walks will be held every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 11 am. In the depths of winter, the beauty of camellias enhance the Gardens with thousands of blossoms. Special tours given by expert guides focus on the camellia varieties, including the 1786 Reine des Fleurs, one of the first camellias planted in America.
Camellia Walks are free with paid admission to Middleton Place, but reservations are required. Please call (843.556.6020) or visit the website (www.middletonplace.org) to reserve your place.
