"The camellia is a symbol of devotion for lovers in China. - In the eyes of the Chinese, the petals reflect the spirit of
a lady, and the holder of the petals (the calyx) represents the young
man entrusted by the lady as her protector.
The calyx of the
camellia falls with the petals when the flower has finished blooming.
This is unlike most other flowers, where the calyx seems to hang around
the tree even after the petals have dropped. This phenomena symbolizes
an everlasting union between lovers. In many parts of China, the
camellia is considered as the flower for young sons and daughters."
