Added to compliment the deep green formal look of the Camellias are many selected varieties of Japanese Maples and annual flowerbeds that are a sight to see all year long. This garden is also host to our educational Musical Market Show.
In the spring when the camellias are in full bloom, it's a spectacular sight. Blossoms of white, pink, red and even variegated colors fill the shrubs. They are as varied as the colors: some are singles, some are semi-doubles and others are doubles.
We're especially proud of our grafted camellias: two different varieties of camellias on the same plant that bloom at different times of the year. Sasanqua and Japonica camellias are grafted on one plant. It took a year, but these camellias have given us so many more years of beauty.
Once the Camellias have blossomed, look for our colorful Hydrangeas. Later in the season, hanging baskets filled with a medley of Impatiens brighten up the area.
Also in Camellia Garden is our Red & White Stores replica. It plays host to our Musical Market Show. Have a seat and enjoy this animatronics show featuring Mario Garlic and Tomato Jack, supported by cast of other vegetables and fruits. It's an easy and entertaining way to learn about good nutrition.
