Very interesting! Wikipedia says it also has Theobromine.

I guess I’m going to have to plant some of this in the garden when we move next year and ‘experiment’ a little bit.

I’d already planned on growing some tea.

It grows on our property.

You might want to experiment shooting yourself in the head before you experiment growing it in your garden.

In the right location it will go absolutely crazy and spread everywhere. New shoots come up from the roots.

If you decide to get rid of it you have to get rid of all the roots or it will come back.

There is an ornamental yaupon that people plat as shrubs but it’s a dwarf type.

What benefits are derived from Yaupon tea that would justify the efforts to create a tea from it?
