Green tea comes from the tea plant, just as black tea does.
The difference between the two is the way it is processed. Black tea is fermented in a damp state for quite a while. Green tea is dried quickly and does not sustain the physical damage and changing the black tea incurs. Both teas contain the powerful anti oxidants polyphenols however, the concentration is much higher in green tea than the black, hence it's popularity as a healthy supplement. Green tea is not processed and fermented like black teas.
