'Shay' the Philippine Tea Tree - #818

This one-of-a-kind tree stands apart from the rest. What you see in the photos are what you get, and there will never be another one like it! A part of our newest collection, Crater Pots by Hello Homebody, an artisanal ceramics studio based in NYC and founded by Cameron Busch. Embracing the differences of handmade pieces and the beauty in neutral tones, her pieces exude a timeless elegance and rugged earthiness designed to complement your bonsai for years to come. I’m Shay the Philippine Tea Tree, native to Southeast Asia. I’m a medicinal plant in some countries, where my leaves are used as a tea substitute. I also get small white flowers throughout the year that hang like stars, symbolizing courage and heart. You may also know me as the Fukien Tea Tree. I'm an indoor tree and need temps above 60 ̊F. In the summer I can spend time outdoors in the shade for natural sun and warm air. I love humidity and thrive in bright indirect light. Water every 5-7 days, or when my pot feels 1/2 light
