Field Notes

Description:

Known as highly nutritious vegetable with many health benefits. Also widely used as herbal medicine to prevent or treat malnutrition, inflammation, cancer and various deficiencies.

Notes:

This one was naturally germinated after the monsoon season kicks in. The pod probably did fell into the ground during summer and just waited for the rainy season to activate the seeds to sprout.
