Camelia sinensis (tea plant)
The tea plant is an evergreen shrub or tree with small flowers with five or seven creamy white petals and light yellow anthers, and with thick and shiny strongly serrated leaves. The plant leaves are used to prepare the tea beverage, and depending on how the leaves are processed, they can give yellow, green or black tea.
