Camellia comes from the East, specifically from Japan, Vietnam and China (where it is known as the bright-leaved tree) from where it was exported to Europe by botanist and missionary Joseph Kamel in the 18th century.

His name was given in honor of the botanist who was also known as Camellus.

One of its most distinctive features is the flower falls whole when it is finished, instead of leaf to leaf, so it is also the symbol of truncated life in some countries.

In the West it began to be known little by little until the writer Alejandro Dumas popularized it in his book "The Lady of the Camellias" in 1848.

In the 19th century, in Pazo de Rubianes, it will begin to cultivate camellias by contacting today with more than 4500 different species.

Today different creams and lotions are made especially for hair but also for shaving or facial creams following the Japanese tradition of using their oil for facial and hair beautification.

As the year progresses the camellia exhibitions begin some important dates are:

In February in Vigo is the "LVI International Exhibition Contest" to be held at the Mar de Vigo Auditorium on February 29 and March 1.

Also in the "Chan do Fento" Golf Course in Meis, the "Camellia Tournament" is held every year, which joins this flower with golf, being on February 21.

Another event is the one held in Cuntis joining the festa do lacón with that of the camellia this year in its XIV edition of "A Camelia na Festa do Lacón with Grelos" on March 1.

In Pontevedra on March 10-12, the "XVIII Mostra da Camelia". On March 21-22 "XX Certame da Camelia de Soutomaior". Other dates for lovers of this flower are April 4-5 in Xebe "VIII Mostra da Camelia in Sanxenxo".
