'''Flowering tea''' or '''blooming tea''' (Chinese: 香片, 工艺茶, or 开花茶) is made of dried tea leaves, mostly green or white tea, which are wrapped around dried flowers. These is made by binding tea leaves and flowers together into a bulb and are then set to dry.

While steeped, the bundle expands and unfurls in a process that emulates a blooming flower and the flowers inside emerge as the centerpiece. Globe amaranth, chrysanthemum, jasmine, lily, hibiscus and osmanthus are commonly used for flowering tea.
