5 Seeds w/growing guidelines (the dried seeds came from ripe fruits - NOT from oven-dried fruits) Limited availability.
The highly sought after and rare Siraitia grosvenorii (luo han guo or monk fruit) is a caudex-forming, herbaceous, perennial vine (member of the Curcubitaceae) that climbs or creeps via tendrils. Leaves are heart shaped and the flowers are yellow. Requires rich, well-drained soil and germinates in a tropical shade environment (or greenhouse).
The plant is cultivated for its fruit, whose extract is nearly 300 times sweeter than sugar and has been used as a low-calorie sweetener for cooling drinks and as medicine in tea or soups where parts of the torn or broken fruit is used. Flowers are also used in teas.
Monk Fruit is harvested in the form of a round, green fruit, which becomes brown on drying. It is rarely used in its fresh form, as it is hard to store due to its high water content. Zone 9b+ or with winter protection.
