So now that I live in the UK I found that I can have a whole bunch of plants in my garden that would have previously perished in the subzero temperatures of Montreal winters.
I thought about all those lovely fresh herbs I could have pretty much year round and then I went and bought three tea plants because hell I can have TEA plants!

So far my little beauts are doing nicely and in 2-3 years I can harvest my own first flush (probably only enough for a cup or two) and make my own tea!
I still haven't bought the herbs.
If you want tea plants of your own and live in the UK I suggest checking out Tregothnan's shop here as they make not only very good tea, but are one of England's first commercial tea plantations.
