Good morning Steemians, I wanted to direct your attention to a plant known as "Katuk" in English, Latin name Sauropus androgynus.
Here is some information I took from wikipedia regarding Katuk.
Now I woke up this morning and saw that underneath each of my Katuk plants, there were little tiny ones growing! This is my theory on what happened there: Last time each of them went to seed, which was months ago, I took some of the seeds and planted them around the base of each Katuk.
I noticed that they are going to seed again right now, and figured there's no way that these little Katuks could've grown from this season's seeds. Another thought of mine was that maybe they just sent little shoots up from the root system.
I honestly think it's the former that's what's happened here, but I'm not 100% sure. Anyway here are the photos, first I will show the main Katuk plant, followed by it's respective base with the little ones:
Pretty cool, right?!
My thought is that I could dig up the baby ones and transfer them to another area so that I could have more Katuk and there wouldn't be so many Katuk in one spot, stepping over each other.
This bit of information was taken from http://edibleplantproject.org/katuk/.
Now that you know a little bit more about this pea-tasting edible leafy green, you can make a decision on whether or not you decide to grow it! I've found most fortune planting it in shady areas, but I've heard it can grow in sunny spots, but needs a lot of water if you do that.
Hope you enjoyed! Thanks for stopping by!
