How to distinguish Camellia, Camellia and Camellia oleifera?

1. Camellia and Camellia are sister flowers of the same genus, there are many similarities in shape, but there are also differences. For example, the young and main veins of Camellia are glabrous, while the young branches and main veins of Camellia oleifera have villi, and the small leaves also have villi on both sides. The flowers of tea plum are flat and their petals are scattered.

2. The shape of Camellia oleifera is similar to that of Camellia oleifera, so counterfeit goods often appear in the flower market, that is, the fake Camellia oleifera is used to impersonate the authenticity of Camellia oleifera. The important differences between the two are as follows:

The main results are as follows: 1. the size and luster of leaves are different. Tea plum leaves dark green, oval, small and thin, glossy. The main veins of young leaves protrude to both sides, the leaves are oblong, and the leaves are larger and less glossy. Leaf blade main vein is flat, leaf back main vein is not pilose, leaf blade abaxial reticulate vein is almost invisible.

2. The location of branches is different. Camellia tenuifolia branchlets oblique or transverse, twigs pilose. The branchlets of Camellia oleifera are inconspicuous, and the twigs are glabrous.

3. The florescence and color are different. Single or double tea plum, red, white, pink, purple and the same color, 4-5 cm in diameter, 6-40 petals, ovary pubescent. While Camellia oleifera flowers are larger, mostly single petals, smaller petals, ovary without pilose, flowering earlier than Camellia oleifera.
