To make harvesting easier, it is kept in plantations as a shrub about 1.5 meters high. The leathery leaves are arranged alternately and more or less serrated depending on the variety. The 1 to 3cm large flowers have white petals and yellow stamens. The fruits of the tea bush are 3-compartment capsules with one seed each.
