Alabama State Flower: Camellia
Camellias grow in lots of other places too. We have them in Ireland where I live now. When I think of Alabama, I think of thousands of trees with vines growing all over them, and mansions set in the middle of clearings in the middle of those trees, with steam rising up from the ground. It's hot and muggy, but it's beautiful! Camellias thrive there!
Camellias are actually native to Asia, and are usually Red, White, or shades of Pink. They bloom from November to April, with the peak time being January and February.
