RE: camellia

You would do best to take cuttings if you want to ensure the flower is the same as the parent (unless the branch you cut mutated to produce a sport of the parent). Any seeds could produce a very different flower (although that is not always undesireable if you get a unique sort of flower from it). In any case, cutting-grown will flower much sooner than seedling grown.
