Jiaogulan herb

Posted by vickory NSW AUST (My Page) on

Having read a very interesting article on the benefits of this herb I would like to grow some... if only I could find a source. Is anyone familiar with this herb or can suggest a supplier of seed or seedling?
Otherwise called gynostemma pentaphyllum.

Many thanks,
Regards, Vic.

Maybe All Rare Herbs of Mapleton in Queensland have it. Phone (07) 5446 9243 and ask for a catalogue.

I bought this plant once and the poor little thing died on me! I was most upset. I'm interested in Chinese natives and wanted to grow it more as an interesting and pretty climber for a shady spots. It's a cucurbitaceae and when you see the plant you'll know it.

I saw a large Gynostemma pentaphyllum on the weekend at the Adelaide botanic gardens. Beautiful plant, definitely give it a go.
