Camellia fraterna is a species of flowering plant in the tea family Theaceae, native to southeastern China.[2] A perennial shrub from 1 to 4 m (3 to 13 ft) tall, it is typically found in thickets and forests at elevations of 100 to 1,100 m (300 to 3,600 ft).[3] It has been crossed with other members of Camellia to produce a number of hybrid cultivars, including 'Tiny Princess' with Camellia cuspidata.[4]
