Used tea leaves go directly on our tea plants as mulch. How's that for recycling?
Perfect!
I do this myself with my own garden, emptying ALL my used teabags (none that have been brewed with milk though!!), as well as banana peels and eggshells in my garden...composting them directly by burying them in the soil.
The result......? TEN FOOT TALL TOMATO PLANTS, vined up a wooden lattice to the roof of my house. I kid you not. I have photo proof on my flickr:
The miracle of what tea can do for plants
Yay for the multiple uses of tea!
Yay, indeed! Your photo is truly amazing!
Your tomato plant is just astounding -- thanks for sending the link!
