A small tree or shrub with needle-like leaves. Also domestically referred to as Ti-Tree. Can grow up to 7 meters (20 feet) in height and thrives in marshy areas, though it is now cultivated in plantations. Tea Tree is very robust and is ready for cutting only two years after its previous harvest. The aboriginal people of Australia have long used Tea Tree Oil.

COMMON USES: Historically, the leaves were used as a substitute for tea, which is how it got its name. In World War II, the producers and the cutters of Tea Tree were exempt from military service until enough essential oil had been accumulated to accommodate the military’s needs.
