The name comes from a story that the three mother trees of Da Hong Paowere once covered by the red robe taken from a grateful imperial official, who was once saved when he was as a young student, by the monks who managed the three tea trees. Thus the tea trees got their name Da Hong Pao-Big Red Robe.
