Camillia sinensis tea plant
My husband wants a tea terrace (and will sulk until he gets one). I have a nasty slope im not doing anything else with, so i think i will have a go.
I have read they need protection while young, but ok after that. Im in south Scotland, so should be ok i think.
Anyone got a tea plantation??

Camellia sinensis is only half hardy and would really need some protection in the winter - especially in Scotland
If you had a greenhouse or polytunnel it might be ok.
? They grow tea commercially in scotland. Its also v cold in india and sri lanka where the plantations are, ie v high up.
