Russian Sochi Tea
The Russian Sochi Tea Plant is a captivating evergreen shrub originating from Sochi, Russia. This remarkable plant produces the leaves used to make some of the world's finest teas. Its glossy, dark green leaves are not only ornamental, but also emit a delightful aroma that enhances the tea-making experience.
To prepare tea, simply harvest the young and tender leaves, then gently dry and steep them in hot water. The result is a flavorful and aromatic cup of tea.
Besides its role in tea production, the Russian Sochi Tea Plant can be an attractive addition to gardens or as an ornamental indoor plant, with dark sawtooth-edge foliage and delicate white flowers. It thrives in partially shaded to full sun conditions, and in temperate climates can be grown outdoors, but it's also suitable for indoor cultivation.
