Product description
Tea out of your own garden? It’s possible.Young plants still have to be protected against frost, but after, temperatures up to 12 degrees below zero won’t be a problem. Provide a sunny spot and water the plants regularly. Tea is made from the leaves. White, yellow, green and black tea all come from the same plant, but each have their own production method. Especially the flower bud and first three leaves are used for tea, older leaves aren’t picked. The slower the growth, the better the quality of the tea. Hence tea plants are often grown at a greater height in Asia to improve the quality.
Sowing description: Scarify the seeds so that the pericarp is thinner. Then soak them in lukewarm water for 48 hours. Sow them in sowing mix and let them germinate at around 25 degC. Keep the soil constantly moist. Please notice that the seeds have a short viability, so sow them as soon as possible.

1/5 ontkiemd,
het ontkiemen ging heel snel, binnen enkele dagen al. de andere vier zaden werden rot.
5/5 zijn uitgekomen! Ze groeien niet erg snel maar dat kan ook aan mij leggen natuurlijk. Ze zien er daarentegen wel gezond uit :) erg blij mee
Geen van de 5 zaden kwamen uit
I had great success with these. Out of the 5 I lost one due to clumsiness and one got mushy but the other 3 have germinated and I can see the taproot going. I keep them on a heating mat for some of the day and in good but indirect light. Germinated in damp sphagnum moss in about a month from soaking.
Alle vijf zaden uitgekomen en het zijn nu jonge plantjes met gemiddeld zes bladeren. Benieuwd wanneer ik voor het eerst kan plukken.
Somminge bladeren krijgen bruine vlekken, misschien toch iets te natte grond
