At the foot of the page the "hybrid" is mentioned as one of the three varieties of tea grown in Assam and Cachar. Some of the Assam planters are beginning to doubt whether this variety ought to be regarded as a hybrid after all. The Abors and Mishurees of the Mishuree Mountains are known to be tea-drinkers; but when some of them visited the plains the other day, and were shown a China plant, they did not know it. When the Assam, or indigenous, plant was pointed out, they said that the tea of their hills was not like that either. But the moment one of the men got sight of a hybrid, he shouted, and by means of sundry significant gestures, intimated that that was their plant! We should not wonder therefore, if it were ultimately proved that what we call the hybrid, is only another variety of the indigenous plant. |
