Can leaves dissolve in water?

No, you can only extract the water soluble parts and some of the aromatic oils in the leaves, using water. The bulk of a tea leaf (or any other leaf) is completely insoluble in water. If leaves were water soluble trees would loose all their leaves in any significant rainstorm (or if you sprayed them with water from your garden hose).

Green tea generally has a higher water-soluble polyphenol content compared to black tea due to differences in processing that retain more of the polyphenols. White tea may also have high polyphenol content, as it is minimally processed. The actual content can vary based on the specific type of tea, growing conditions, and processing methods used.
