Stewartia

Stewartia is a genus of 8-20 species of flowering plants in the family Theaceae, related to Camellia.

Etymology
The genus was named in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus to honour John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute. Owing to a transcription error, Linnaeus was given the name as 'Stewart', but still widely in the UK and genus as well as in numerous influential horticultural publications. ==Cultivation and uses==
