Morinda citrifolia

  • Product number: 628960
  • Origin: South and Southeast Asia, Oceania
  • Latin: Morinda citrifolia

The "miracle fruits" (which are not tasty, by the way), but also the leaves and roots of this fascinating houseplant have good properties and may positively influence the human immune system to such an extent that the plant has been attributed miraculous properties for 2000 years. The red color in batik art used to come from the root of the Morinda, among other things. The plant grows with us as a fairly strong houseplant and will start bearing fruit after 3-5 years of growth. Put 2 or 3 plants in 1 pot. In summer, enjoy it outdoors. If all the wonderful properties turn out to be relative, at least a culturally very interesting plant remains….
