Tea garden for loose leaf teas?

[MamaHawk]

Hi all!

If I were to create a garden specifically for making tea, what could I include in it? What should I avoid? Is this worth effort at all?

guess you need to research types of Tea Bushes. How long takes before harvest, what zones they grow in. Lots of different types of plant leaves make Teas. Main thing keeping it all organic, that is no spraying of any pesticides etc. How to protect the bushes from casual pesticides.

If you take a chamomile tea bag and sprinkle it in the garden it will grow chamomile so you can harvest the flowers to make tea.
