Camellia sinensis (Tea Plant: Pot Luck)
Plant into larger pots or soil within a few weeks of delivery.
Tea plants are ericaceous, meaning that they require acidic soils to perform at their best.
A standard Peat-Free ericaceous compost will suffice in pots, however it is recommended that a mix of ericaceous compost and 5-10% perlite or grit is included for improved drainage.
In soil, preparation of the planting area with an organic matter rich ericaceous compost is ideal and/or addition of composted pine bark or pine bark needles.
Ideally, plant or place in an area that is in semi-shade and with low exposure to heavy winds.
Recorded delivery within 3 working days.
