  Charmless hadronic decays of B mesons to a vector meson (V) and a tensor
meson (T) are analyzed in the frameworks of both flavor SU(3) symmetry and
generalized factorization. We also make comments on B decays to two tensor
mesons in the final states. Certain ways to test validity of the generalized
factorization are proposed, using $B \to VT$ decays. We calculate the branching
ratios and CP asymmetries using the full effective Hamiltonian including all
the penguin operators and the form factors obtained in the non-relativistic
quark model of Isgur, Scora, Grinstein and Wise.
