About the Ocala Camellia Society

The Ocala Camellia Society is a local society, affiliated with the American Camellia Society. Annual dues are $10 for individuals, $15 for couples, and $50 for corporate sponsors. A monthly newsletter is published prior to each meeting and is included in the price of the annual dues. We strongly urge all members to simultaneously join the American Camellia Society.

The annual Ocala Camellia Show is generally held on the fourth weekend in January each year and is open to the public on Saturday from 1-5 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m.-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.

The Ocala Camellia Society meets in the afternoon on the first Sunday of each month, from September through March. Exceptions are in September, when the first Sunday is on Labor Day weekend, and in 2025, due to early voting at our meeting place in November; these months, the meeting is on the second Sunday. Meetings include a guest speaker or other activities.

Members, friends, and interested gardeners from the general public are invited to attend our meetings. Members are encouraged to bring friends.
