The Ocala Camellia Society meets on the first Sunday of each month, September through March, at 2:00 p.m., at the United Way of Ocala, 1401 NE 2nd St., Ocala, Marion County, Florida. Members, friends, and interested gardeners from the general public are invited to attend. Members are encouraged to bring friends.

The annual Ocala Camellia Show is generally held on the fourth full weekend in January each year, and is open to the public on Saturday from 1-5 p.m. and Sunday from 9-4 p.m., in Ocala, Florida. Judging by American Camellia Society Certified Judges begins promptly at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday. Camellia plants will be on sale both days.

If you are a judge or novice judge and would like to judge at future shows, or if you are interested in bringing and entering flowers to be judged and would like for us to send you a show program with rules for entering flowers, please contact Patrick Andrews at 352-595-3365.
