Tea camellia and related camellia species occur naturally in forests and along forest edges where soils are rich in organic matter and minerals.Though the history and genetic ancestry of tea are disputed, it is generally accepted that there are two comprehensive varieties of tea nested within the C. sinensis species. One is a variety of tea with small leaves that is originally from southern China and is designated "var. sinensis." This variety of tea, which is also called the "China type," is generally preferred by planters in cool climates though it can tolerate some degree of heat stress as well.The other variety of tea has large leaves and is generally cultivated between Assam in eastern India to Yunnan province in southwestern China. This variety is designated "var. assamica" and often called, more simply, the "Assam type." The Assam type is preferred in warm, sub-tropical, and tropical areas where it seldom, if ever, freezes in the winter
