FAQ : Our Tea Plants
Tea plants can be planted between October and May.
In autumn or winter, protect them from cold winds.
In spring, make sure you can water them during short dry periods between May and July.
Avoid planting during very cold or windy conditions.
The tea plant (Camellia sinensis) prefers acidic, well-drained soil (pH < 6) and moderate humidity (over 60%).
Protect it from drying winds. It can tolerate cold temperatures down to –12 °C, and some varieties even lower.
Tea plants also adapt well to different light conditions — those grown in partial shade establish more easily but yield less once mature.
Our cultivars — Trévarez, Kemper, Korean, Georgian, and Kolkhida — have withstood temperatures down to –6 °C here.
Growers in the Pyrenees and Germany have even seen –12 °C without major damage.
Late frosts, especially in April after mild weather, can harm new shoots and cause them to blacken, but the plant typically recovers after a few weeks.
The tea plant naturally grows in the ground.
It can stay in a pot for a few years, but its deep roots will eventually need more space.
Some gardeners do manage to keep tea plants in pots, though.
Always protect them from drying winds and give them a spot with partial shade.

Our tea plants are grown in the nursery and are not sold directly at the garden.
However, we sometimes offer them for sale during the summer season when the garden is open.
Orders are shipped once a week (more frequently during the holiday season).
Once dispatched, delivery usually takes 3 to 5 business days, depending on the carrier.
Our plant nursery operates in spring and autumn — the best seasons for planting.
We pause tea plant shipments during summer (June to August) and winter (January to March) each year.
