🌱 Why do the Chinese drink tea?

• 
  🍃 It actually has to do with the Chinese theory of the five elements - wood, metal, fire, water, and earth:

木 金 火 水 土

• 
  🍃 Tea comes from a plant - Camellia sinensis - the Tea Leaf Tree - that is used to make all true teas: green, black, white, and oolong. The Tea Tree contains the element of wood (木) 🌳
• 
  🍃 When it's roasted in a cast-iron pan, it gains the element of metal (金)
• 
  🍃 Then it's dried over fire, adding the element of fire (火) 🔥
• 
  🍃 When it's brewed with boiling water, the element of water enters (水) 💦
• 
  🍃 Finally, tea is poured into a clay vessel, symbolizing the element of earth (土) 🍯
• 
  🍃 In this way, all five elements - wood, metal, fire, water, and earth - come together in a single cup.
• 
  🍃 The plant grows slowly and can thrive in containers or frost-free gardens with sun to semi-shade.

How to water a newly planted Mango tree?

Never rely solely on your sprinkler system when planting a new tree, especially during the first week or even several weeks if you have no rain. By rain, we mean a nice downpour. Here in Florida, we usually have a hot and dry spring, and while springtime is great for starting new trees, additional hose-watering becomes essential for establishing them during the first months.

New Complete Guide to Avocado Varieties. How to choose the right type of Avocado.
How many varieties of Avocado are there in cultivation? Did you know that there are hundreds of them? You probably thought there were only 2 kinds - black and green?

You may not realize is that this basic (but practical!) classification doesn't encompass all the wonderful qualities avocados have to offer.

There are numerous hybrids in cultivation, and once you plant your first tree and taste the REAL fruit (not from the grocery store), you'll be eager to explore other varieties. It's a guarantee! While it's true that avocado fruit can vary in "butter" content, most superior varieties are equally delicious.

This Avocado Variety Guide helps to choose the right variety for you. With its interactive tool, you can sort cultivars by fruit shape and quality, cold hardiness, origin, crop season, flower type A or B, tree habit and more.
