Morphological characteristics of Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze belonging to the family Thaeceae
were studied. In Myanmar, Camellia sinensis (L. ) Kuntze is known as “laphet or tea”. The plant
specimens were collected from seven localities of Pyin Oo Lwin and Mogok Townships of
Mandalay Region; Naung Cho Township of Northern Shan State; Pinlaung, Panglong, Pindaya
and Ywangan Townships of Southern Shan State in Myanmar from 2017 to 2019. The plants
were shrubs to small trees and leaf scars were present on the stems from seven localities. The
shapes and colour of leaves were the same inall localities.The sizes of leaves, petioles and
flowers were varied from one locality to another. The flowers were creamy white or pale
yellow, showy and fragrant. Sepals were 5 and persistentinall localities. The numbers of petals
were slightly different from one locality to another. The capsules were woody and 3-5 seeded in
all localities. The similarities and differencesof morphological characteristics of this study
would be useful for species confirmation and verification of certain plant identification rapidly
and easily.
