Chaya, Mexican Tree Spinach (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius)

$12.95

Live Chaya Plant
Ships in 100% Biodegradable 4" Coconut Fiber Planter

Cnidoscolus aconitifolius also known as Chaya, aka 'Mayan Tree Spinach' or 'Mexican Tree Spinach', is a large fast-growing and productive perennial shrub from the Spurge family of plants.

The plant is native to Central America, and is believed to have originated on the Yucatan peninsula. The stems of the plant are woody and succulent-like, and expel a milky white sap when cut. The plant can grow to a height of 15 feet if growth conditions allow.

In Mexico, Chaya is eaten as a leafy green vegetable, and is very common. Chaya is cooked just like spinach and is excellent in stir-fries! It's a great source of protein, vitamins, calcium, and iron and also a rich source of antioxidants. Chaya actually has more nutritional benefit then Spinach. Chaya is quite literally, a super green!

There is one thing to note about Chaya- the leaves under any circumstance should not be eaten raw. The plant contains a poison similar to cyanide (the stuff in Apple seeds) that is lethal and can sicken individuals when consumed. The poison is neutralized by boiling the leaves for 5-15 minutes, straining the water, and cooking in a new pot of water. This process is called blanching and is required prior to consumption.

While Chaya is well known for it's tasty culinary uses, it also has several important traditional medicinal uses. Probably the most researched medicinal effect of Chaya is it's ability to help treat and fight diabetes.

Mature Fruiting Shrub, in 3 Gallon (3-5 ft)
Mature Fruiting Shrub, in 1 Gallon (1-2 ft)

Miracle Fruit, also known as Miracle Berry, is a rare fruiting evergreen tree native to tropical West Africa. Miracle Fruit is famously known for its bright red berry that causes sour foods to taste sweet! When eaten before something sour, a lemon for example, a component in the Miracle Berry called Miraculin will cause the lemon's sourness to disappear! This effect can last up to 30 minutes. For the best effect, when eating the berry first let the smooth flesh roll around your mouth and fully cover your taste buds for up to 2 minutes before swallowing.

The leaves are long, smooth and deep green. It grows like a shrub, averaging around 5 to 7 ft. It will produce small white flowers and bear fruit intermittently throughout the year.

Miracle Fruit is an excellent potted plant as well and will grow wonderfully planted indoors in a container for many years. Try to simulate it's native tropical climate when planting or overwintering indoors by misting the leaves and providing bright natural sunlight. The roots like moisture but do not like to be water logged, so make sure to avoid over watering.

Guava, Thai (Psidium guajava)

$16.95

Live Thai Guava Fruit Tree
Ships in 100% Biodegradable Coconut Fiber Planter

Growing a Thai Guava fruit tree in North America requires a tropical habitat, it loves sunny and warm locations and thrives in both humid and dry climates. It's rare to see these trees grown outside of California, Hawaii, and Texas due to tropical environment requirements, but it is possible to grow guavas in containers. It is important to know that these fruit trees are very frost tender, especially when young. They must have shelter from freezing winds, even in sunny warm climates where occasional icy temperatures occur.They are evergreen, shallow-rooted shrubs or small trees and produce sweetly scented flowers, small round, oval or pear shaped delicious fruits, and have a beautiful tropical appearance. The bark is smooth, green or reddish brown and peels off in thin flakes to reveal the attractive "bony" aspect of its trunk.

The guava plant thrives in any soil with good drainage and lots of nutrients. These trees love fertilizer, so regular application is recommended. Keep the soil slightly moist while the plant is young. At the time of fruiting (3-4 months after flowering the fruits will be mature), keep the soil evenly moist as this will help develop more juicy and sweet fruits. This fruit tree is very tough but you should keep an eye out for common garden pests.

Harvest - In warmer regions guavas will ripen all year. Guava fruits usually mature in 3 to 4 months after flowering. There is a distinctive change in the color and aroma of the guava that has ripened. For the best flavor, allow fruit to ripen on the tree.

Comfrey has a large, black turnip like root which is often used medicinally. The flowering parts of the plant can also be used. Since Comfrey is such a productive grower, mature plants of its species can be harvested multiple times a year! Be advised the plant has fine hairs on the stem that can irritate skin, so wear gloves when handling live plants.

Comfrey's medicinal uses include the healing of wounds and bones, as a potent anti-inflammatory, and for skin issues such as acne and psoriasis. Generally an essential oil of the plant is used for external applications. It's primary constituent is Allantoin which is known for helping damaged tissue heal by increasing cell proliferation.

Comfrey also is a great plant for gardens due to it's ability to act as a useful fertilizer crop. Because Comfrey's root penetrates deep into the soil, it accumulates large amounts of nutrients. At the end of the season, grind up your unused plants including the root, and mix into your soil to help provide needed nutrients.

Sow Exotic carries the 'Russian' variety which is one of the most commonly cultivated variants. Any serious herbalist should consider growing Comfrey in their gardens. Get yours today!

$16.95

Ships in 100% Biodegradable Coconut Fiber Planter

Red Abyssinian is a very attractive perennial plant that adds a brilliant pop of color to any landscape.

Red Abyssinian is cultivated for it's highly ornamental red to burgundy foliage and edible root. Although the root is rare to consume in the U.S., it's a very important food crop in Ethiopia.

It grows quickly and effortlessly. Like bananas, these plants spread through suckers and produce a banana like fruit, although these ones aren't very edible. Also like bananas, Red Abysinnian's aren't fruit trees, but rather monocarpic perennial herb plants! They can grow up to 10 feet tall in temperate areas and up to 20 feet tall in sub-tropical areas. Best planted in full sun, which will bring a brighter coloration in the leaves, but it's important to provide protection from strong winds as they can damage the leaves. Fun Fact: Native to Eastern Africa, Abyssinia is actually an older name for Ethiopia, which, along with Kenya, is the heart of what we now call East Africa.
