Tea Tree General - A small tree or shrub (smallest of the tea tree family), with needle-like leaves similar to
cypress, with heads of sessile yellow or purplish flowers. The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the leaves and twigs. The name is derived from its local usage as a type of herbal tea, prepared from the leaves. These uses of the tea tree are based on a very long history of use by the aboriginal people of Australia. Tea tree has been shown in scientific studies to be active against all three varieties of infectious organisms: bacteria, fungi, and viruses, and to be a very powerful immuno-stimulant. Tea tree is native to Australia, mainly in New South Wales.
