White tea is also awesome...and dig the yerba mate.

Anyone here tried guayusa?


White tea i never have had white tea?? Interesting. I would love to try Ilex Guayusa but apparently it has never been found in flower. Who would like to join me to do our best to preserve this species by collecting as much information and data as possible also to create awareness about this plant. If at all possible to source seeds so that we can grow this beautiful and amazing plant and to hopefully propagate flowers. I would love to take some pictures of the flowers :d


Much Peace

That is what they said about Salvia divinorum years back, but we all know now that Salvia divinorum DOES in fact flower.

Who would like to join me to do our best to preserve this species by collecting as much information and data as possible also to create awareness about this plant.

It would be better to grow it as well as collect knowledge.

If at all possible to source seeds so that we can grow this beautiful and amazing plant and to hopefully propagate flowers.

I'm working on finding Ilex guayusa plants and seeds, but this is a very rare botanical... it may take some time!

Excellent!
 
I think white tea is similar to green tea, being uncured, unfermented leaves and buds, but I think white tea is even younger, fresher growth than green tea...full of antioxidants.

Ooohhhhh i would love to have white tea it sounds awesome just my type of tea hhhhmmmmmm ppppprrrrrr :roll:

Wow some of you drink a lot! I only drink 2-3 cups of green tea a day because the advice that keeps appearing in the press is that one shouldn't drink more than three cups a day.
That's meant to be the sweet spot- apparently, green tea is a good anti-cancer agent because it stifles growth, and growth is what cancer does best. But when you drink too much, it stifles growth too much and can be bad for you. We all need to grow! APPARENTLY, so I read... please correct me if I'm misinformed.

Indeed i am very much with you on this, its probably best to have 2-3 cups of green tea and then switch to another herbal tea or fruit juice after :d

1. Of course Ilex Guayusa flowers i know that i never stated it didnt i just stated that it hasnt been found in flower.

Some heavily cultivated plants like Kava never flower, so it is possible Guayusa does NOT flower, but I highly doubt it.
 
anyone here experience the amazing digestive benifits of green tea and yerba mate?? They are both irreplacable medicines in my cabinet now..everything seems to flow properly and on schedule with these herbs in my diet..got some pau d arco comming in the mail to mix with my morning tea as well for extra benifit.

Well some heavily cultivated plants like Kava never flower, so it is possible Guayusa does NOT flower, but I highly doubt it (I bet Kava even flowers somehow).

Your post does not make much sense to me :?:

After 1000s of years of cultivation humans can make plants do some pretty insane things (such as not flowering, for the benefit of added leaf growth, larger yields, etc.).

Hmm, this worries me a little. I like to drink a lot more than 2-3 cups a day. As a matter of fact i ussualy drink a pot with 5 bags in it every morning and i have the disgusting habit (says my ex-girlfriend) of squeezing the bags for a few last strong drops when i emptied the pot.
