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