6" Tea Camellia

Tea Camellia (Camellia sinensis)
This elegant evergreen shrub is the very plant used to make green, black, oolong, and white tea. Its glossy leaves and fragrant white blooms make it a beautiful and functional addition to your garden or indoor collection. With the right care, you can harvest and brew your own tea right from home.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light to partial sun; morning sun is ideal
💧 Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy; prefers acidic soil
🌫 Humidity: Enjoys moderate to high humidity—great for a greenhouse or bright bathroom
🐾 Pet Friendly: ⚠️ Use Caution – not considered highly toxic, but ingesting large quantities of leaves may cause mild symptoms

Fun Fact: All true tea comes from this single species—the processing method determines whether it becomes green, black, or oolong tea.
