2008 American Camellia Conference

In February of 2008, the magic of the camellia was unveiled at the most magical of all settings: Longwood Gardens.

The occasion was the American Camellia Society’s 2008 Annual Meeting. This meeting  included a conference and symposium co-spon-sored by Longwood Gardens, with a focus on cold-hardy camellias.

For the first time, anyone curious about this beau­tiful plant could join camellia-savvy growers and ACS mem­bers to enjoy not only news of the camellia world, but also the fabulous orchids, tropical plants and other outstanding exhibits that have made Longwood Gardens so famous.

This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience an ACS Conference that will be remembered for years to come.
