Businessman James K. Thomas grows around 2,000 tea plants in an half acre garden
While the talk of tea plantations generally conjures up images of colonial estates on the undulating hills of Munnar, the evergreen plant, with its scented flowers and delicious leaves, is now lending charm to the precincts of a home in Kottayam.
An half acre garden, comprising about 2,000 tea plants, is nurtured by James K. Thomas, a businessman settled at Chengalam East, Pallikathodu grama panchayat. Transplanted from a tea plantation in Wagamon, these plants have survived at least four summers and are flourishing with the rain.
