Typically the most commonly harvested parts of the tea plant (camellia sinesis) are the Orange Pekoe (newest bud), the Pekoe (two maturing leaves beneath the orange pekoe), and the Souchong (most recently fully matured leaves beneath the pekoe). There are exceptions to this however. This is dependent on several key factors, which are as follows... The origin or prefecture in which the tea is being harvested, the style of both the tea and its processing also matter. And then there is quality. Lower quality teas which can be purchased in grocery stores can use many other parts of the plant as well. Even higher quality teas, typically whites, can use stems as well. Hopefully, this answers the question appropriately.
