It hasn't wicked out on me, but then I leave the bags in the pot until I've 
drunk all the tea. Also I often paint black or brown later and apply the 
ground/tea leaves/ whatever to that.

Another use for spent tea leaves is representing bark on trees, especially 
pine trees made with balsa trunks. I have an associate whose On30 layout has 
several of them and the effect is quite convincing. As for using tea leaves 
for ground cover, doesn't the tea color wick out into the water-based 
adhesive (matte medium or diluted white glue) and stain the surrounding 
ground cover?
