Nice!
Do you know the species and variety?
Not a clue. Came with the house when I bought it - over 39 years ago. That's a lot of
camellia flowers under the bridge. 😁
Have you tried drying and drinking it?
No. Which parts? (Ah, Wikipedia to the rescue, leaves, maybe buds.)
Camelia sinensis has a lot of caffeine. It's what they put in tea bags. :-)
I don't do caffeine. Not a matter of some sort of belief system. I was a heavy coffee drinker, but one day, somewhere
between 2 and 3 decades ago, I just lost interest. Never much of a non-herbal tea drinker. I drink it occasionally to be
polite. Not bad, but doesn't attract me to seek it out.
I wake up easily and am ready to go sans caffeine. Drives Carol a little nuts, as she creeps hazily toward the closest
source of coffee.
Lost interest in sodas long ago. Lost interest in herbal teas more recently. I do love sparkly water. 😉 Wine and beer
in quite moderate quantities please me.
Safe for Camellias Moose
