Hardy tea plant for your garden

Tea plants are the first plants suitable for European climates. They are winter-hardy and can therefore be grown in your garden, where they can reach a height of up to 2,5 meters! The tea plant prefers a bright, sunny spot. It also prefers slightly acidic soil with a pH of 5-7. If you want a wide, full plant with many shoots, prune the green part of the plant. Cut a branch just above the start of a new branch on the green part.

Caring for the Camellia Sinensis tea plant indoors

When the tea plant is indoors, don't place it near a heater or radiator, but in a spot with outdoor light. They prefer a sunny spot! Keep the soil moist but not too wet. Water it about twice a week, depending on the temperature. For a wide, full plant, prune the green part of the plant. Cut a branch just above the start of a new branch on the green part.
