Tea tree grows in Malaysia and Australia, where it has been known as a medicinal means for many centuries. The plant was named by captain Cook and the first colonizers of Australia, who fell into the aborigines’ habit of brewing tea tree leaves, getting in this way a flavored drink, a tea substitute. Since the thirties of our century, tea tree has exceeded the bounds of Australia and has come into use in other countries.
