- We recently headed down south to North Carolina to visit @camelliaforestteagardens to see some cold-hardy varieties of Camellia (though not hardy enough to our Zone 5-6) and learn how best to grow them with owner, David Parks. But in this episode, we tour the tea garden with his wife, Christine Parks, who takes us through how to cultivate, harvest, and prepare your own tea leaves: camforest.com/

Attending that talk given by the Japanese tea expert on April 6th would have been fascinating!
The scenes of the steaming and roasting of the teas were great. No wonder that it can be so expensive!
Thank you Summer for this enjoyable video. I am having my breakfast along with a cup of Matcha Tea. I don't use a 'whisk' to prepare my Matcha, I use an emulsion stick blender. I have one cup of early morning coffee and then throughout the day I have several other tea blends. All from loose leaf teas. I can not get myself to brew or drink from a ceramic vessel, metals and other contaminants in the clay worry me. Thank you again for all the great information and content you give us. Namaste
😊 Thank you for such an informative, well considered questions and answers video for a tea drinker hope to be grower some day !! 😊
So timely Summer. I was literally Googling how to make tea leaves :).
Outstanding Video!❤️❤️❤️I have never tried to grow tea! Wow!
Fabulous information, I'm a huge tea fan.
Really interesting!
Purr is my favorite.
Puer. Stupid phone. Sheesh.
This whole video, warms my heart and lungs (have a bad cough and cold). What would we do without tea? Pu Err, as an extra, stimulates my creativity. There must be something very different in it. It goes well, with a tiny bit of white chocolate. On the subject of tea, I received some tea. It's called 'Blauwe Vlindererwt thee.' It's made of flowers, called 'kittelbloem.' Have you or Sander ever tasted this one? I'm timid to try it. Thanks.
This intrigued me so I looked it up... Butterfly Pea Flower tea - perhaps Summer could explain the surprising Latin name of the genus?
Clitoria vine/butterfly pea vine is very easy to grow. It comes in single or double flowers. It comes in blue, lavender purple, pale pink or white flowers. The dark indigo blue colored flowers give blue tea. The purple lavender gives a lavender tea. The pink and white doesn't lend much color to the tea. The seeds are hard and you nick the seed coat and soak them in warm water overnight before planting. Some people will nick them and place in wet paper towels and put in a ziplock to sprout them.
Thyme makes a perfect tisane for lungs, also pine needles. Breathing in while drinking is wonderful.
@@jeanneamato8278 thanks. 💕
@@Neilhuny Yes, I've had it in Thailand and thus got some for me here. It's in the genus Clittoria, as @Neiluny mentioned on account of the flowers. I had it first as a gelatinized dessert and now make a tea out of it. They also have a bright pink version!
Rooibos all day every day.
Thanks!
L-Theanine…..wow!
Do you sell any purple tea plants or cuttings? I am trying to locate a few purple tea plants. I am growing tea up in the north FL Panhandle zone 8b on our farm. Camellias love it here.
They grow them there, yes.
