Ruan Zhi (軟枝), literally "soft stem" is a variety of oolong tea developed by the Taiwan Tea Experiment Station (TTES). Other common titles are Bai Lu and TTES #17. The tea is similar to Qing Xin (青心), literally "green heart", and therefor often mistaken for it. The taste is light and is often referred to orchids. This tea variety is used to produce famous highland Oloong teas such as Dong Ding, Oriental Beauty, Pouchong and Ruan Zhi.
