« on: September 18, 2024, 12:41:23 PM »
Aganonerion polymorphum (Apocynaceae) - la giang, soursop creeper, riverleaf, from Vietnam
9th season mature plants, all seed grown (no clones)
$15+ ship (Ebay sellers have live plants listed at $40-50/ea)
Plants ship from Birmingham, Alabama in a 2-gal pot
This vining shrub from Vietnam produces attractive, edible leaves that give a tart flavor that resembles a loquat fruit. The leaves are added to Vietnamese pho to give a pleasantly tart kick. Plants are easy to maintain, thriving in partial sun with moderate moisture. In cooler climates, they go semi-dormant in the winter and are easily pruned and overwintered indoors. These can be propagated from cuttings, but all of mine are from seed I germinated in April of 2016. Professional obligations force me to downsize my tropical ethnobotanicals. I have seven plants in total, two to keep for myself, and five to share with others who appreciate edible and medicinal plants.
