When selecting Tea plant varieties for production, consider the variety's suitability for processing and the appropriate region. Firstly, each tea plant variety has its suitability for processing, which refers to its ability to produce a specific type of tea with optimal quality. This includes physical characteristics such as Leaf shape, color, downiness, and tenderness; and chemical components such as polyphenol, amino acid, and chlorophyll content.

Secondly, each tea plant variety is suitable for specific planting regions. Therefore, in areas producing different types of tea, different tea plant varieties should be selected. For larger-scale tea gardens, it's also important to consider a suitable mix of varieties (early, mid, and late budding) to avoid a “peak” in picking times and to mitigate risks from pests, diseases, and weather events. Typically, ultra-early budding varieties make up 40%, while early and mid-budding varieties account for around 30% each.
