Introducing Camellia sinensis, the tea plant native to South and Southeast Asia but now cultivated across the world in tropical and subtropical regions. This evergreen shrub or small tree produces leaves and leaf buds used to produce various types of tea, including white, green, oolong, and black. Along with its ornamental value as an attractive small shrub, Camellia sinensis also offers health benefits, such as protecting the drinker from certain heart diseases. Tea lovers can now enjoy the rich and full-bodied teas from Assam, the delicately flavored Darjeeling teas, and the subtle and gentle Nilgiri teas, all harvested from Camellia sinensis. Explore the many cultivars of this versatile plant, including the small-leaved Chinese variety and the large-leaved Assamese variety, and experience the different tea qualities produced by harvesting tips and leaves of varying ages. Embrace the tradition and culture of tea drinking with Camellia sinensis.
