If you are looking to start your own tea plants and pick fresh tea each year this is the place.. set up a appointment to try different teas grown here in North carolina .. or they are looking for volunteers to help .. this place is truly awesome experience.

I ordered two Edgeworthias. The price for the size was good, including shipping. The shrubs came in excellent condition. I've always trusted Camellia Forest and have ordered from them several times. They haven't disappointed me.

Healthy, beautiful, delicious camellia sinensis sinensis all the way in Boise Idaho. I could not be happier.

I ordered six camellias that I couldn't find locally, and then I found another one I wanted to add. Camforest responded promptly to the email, added the plant and shipped the same day. I received them quickly and they were well packed with not a single leaf broken. I was surprised at how healthy the camellias looked in such small pots. I planted them a few weeks ago and they look great!

Questions & Answers

I was directed to your nursery while sesrching for a Camellia sinensis that I could grow outdoors in NE Ohio, zone 6. Could you please give me more information, including price?

Unless you are very close to the lake, NE Ohio is really pushing the limits of where Camellia sinensis can be grown. Sudden drops in temperature and extended periods below freezing can damage or even kill tea plants. If you want to try some, I recommend "Black Sea Tea" @$20. These are seed grown from Russian seeds and should be quite cold hardy.

Will any of your cold hardy camellias survive in Lewisburg wv? We are zone 6ish.

Although Camellias may thrive for several years in Lewisburg, WV I think you will have a cold winter when the Camellias will be severely damaged or killed by exceptionally low temperatures or extended periods of temperatures below 10F. The most cold hardy Camellias can tolerate brief drops to -5 or even -10 F but lower temperatures or extended cold can damage or kill the plants.

I am searching for a smaller variety blooming cherry. The Yoshina may be too large and I have read that the Japanese consider the Kanzan a "trash tree", also its branching is in a "Y" shape. Suggestions?

Good morning, Harriet, Prunus incisa 'Kojo-no-mai' is a compact, deciduous flowering cherry cultivar with somewhat twisted growth. Check out the full description here: https://camforest.com/products/ts-pruinckoj Our current stock is in 5-gallon pots ($50) and would have to be picked up here at the Nursery in Chapel Hill, NC. Have a great day!

I received a text from you telling me a set of numbers was my Shopify Pay code for Camellia Forest. Never used your website to order before. What is a Shopify Pay code? Will I be asked for this code when I finish my order????

We do not send out texts to new customers nor do we use Shopify Pay codes. I would ignore this text and delete it.

Will Camellia's survive and grow in Southeast Oklahoma and is it too late to plant???

Connie Drummonds | Sep 20, 2019
Sarah Waugh | Sep 20, 2019

Yes, southeast Oklahoma is in a good zone for camellias. It's not too late to plant yet.

How deep are the roots of my 20 year old camellia which I must remove .

Judith Breuer | Sep 20, 2018

Old Camellia will make taproots that can be 2 or more feet deep. If you are trying to transplant the Camellia you can cut the deeper roots but you will need to prune the top to match the root system.
