Tea - Cultivation
Tea is produced from leaves and leaf buds of Camellia sinensis, the tea plant. All tea varieties, such as green, oolong, and black tea, are harvested from this species, but differ by processing.
While in nature the tea tree may grow to 5 to 15 meters, and sometimes even to 30 meters[1], planted tea shrubs are usually trimmed to below two metres (six feet), to stimulate the growth of leaves and to ease plucking.
Many infectious insects, including the green leafhopper, mites, caterpillars, and termites, are natural enemies to tea plants.
Naturally, tea has grown in subtropical monsoon climates with wet and hot summers and relatively cold and dry winters.[2] Today, it is cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions. In tropical regions, the best conditions are at higher altitudes. Important tea producing countries are China, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Iran, Republic of Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Japan, Indonesia, Nepal, Australia, Argentina, and Kenya. (In the tea trade, Sri Lanka and Taiwan are still referred to by their former names of Ceylon and Formosa, respectively.)
