About the Greenville Camellia Society

The Greenville Camellia Society is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to safeguard Butler County’s distinctive camellia heritage and champion its legacy as “The Camellia City” as a cultural tourism destination. Our objective is to produce an annual American Camellia Society-sponsored camellia show and strive to make it the best in the state.

We are an all-inclusive organization and welcome men and women as members. Our annual membership dues are $30, payable each May at our traditional garden party. We hold many fun activities and fundraisers throughout the year to support our mission. Join us as we honor our heritage as the Camellia City!
