SKU:
K008
Jiaogulan, or five-leaf ginseng (Gynostemma pentaphyllum), is a climbing plant from the Cucurbitaceae family, native to southern China. It is frost-hardy down to –15 °C. Above-ground parts die back in winter, but the plant regrows in spring. It can also be grown in a pot. The plant is sometimes called “five-leaf ginseng” or “southern ginseng,” though it is not related to true ginseng (Panax ginseng).
