The King of Camellias, Sidney Frazier of Middleton Place, Charleston, SC

This week, CP Guest Host Abra Lee celebrates the season in conversation with the King of Camellias, Sidney Frazier. Sidney is based out of sunny Charleston, South Carolina, where he sits as Vice President of Horticulture at Middleton Place - a historic home and garden there is believed to be the oldest landscaped garden in America. Camellias were first planted in America near the end of the 18th century in the four corners of Henry Middleton's parterre, overlooking the Ashley River. Sidney shares with us the historic legacy of Camellias at Middleton Place and gives us some fun tips and tricks on how to care for these magnificent plants. Enjoy, and Happy Winter Solstice on the 21st.  Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place.
