Tropical perennial? What is the botanical name of this plant, exactly?

well, first I should tell you that this seller is not trustworthy, and neither are the seeds I bought. there was no information given whatsoever with these peanuts, and no information for the black peanuts I bought from the same seller, that arrived moldy and crumbled, and of course none of them grew. I left a review describing my experience, and the seller deleted the black peanuts from his list without responding to my complaint. I dont think this seller has any more knowledge about these peanuts than i do.

It says it is 'tropical'. Has a citrus, coconut scent and very pleasant, not overpowering. I've used this product for years!

Lemon grass can be perennial if it is grown in a very warm climate....otherwise it is an annual. Hope this helps

This plant will out grow weeds, but is an annual in most places, as it is tropical

I'm quite sure it isn't assamica since it says it's hardy to zone 7 and since they say you can grow it indoors. Assamica is a very large variety and this clearly isn't.

No, my shipment didn't arrive with a list of plants by species. However, I contacted the seller for another reason and they were completely helpful. I'm sure they would be happy to include a list of plants if you request it with your order. FYI, I had a bigger order so I received many duplicate plants.

It is a tropical plant. So, if you live in an area that is warm all year, you should be able to plant it outside. Unfortunately, I live in zone 6. I have mine potted. It is outside for about 6-8 months and inside the house for the rest.

this is a tropical plant and is very particular about its environment, as i live in New York i will not be putting it out side, that said i am sure if a bee where to go inside, it would would run the risk of getting stuck.

I wish I could answer your question with more knowledge. As far as I know, the moringa tree is a tropical plant that would die if left outside to freeze in an over-winter situation. From what i can tell, of my own research and experience, if it seems dormant it's probably dead.

I can't answer that because it never germinated for me. I am under the impression it is an indoor plant.

Yes it is Asclepias curassavica. And my recent batch of seeds were in very good shape. Had a high germination rate.

these like full sun with regular feeding and watering. i've even grown one in my pond. of course I must start a new one each year, as it isn't hardy in coastal va. no problem, tho, as the cuttings root easily. while in sanibel, fl 2 yrs ago, I saw some beautiful, huge specimens. love this plant! blooms all winter, less profusely, in the house. I use espoma flower tone, an organic planet food. love all their products, tomato tone is great. most recognizable and easiest to find is holly tone,

Considering the issues I've had with this plant it is clearly tropical and MUST have extended periods of warmth of above 75 and above degrees with bright sunshine in order to grow and thrive. Anything less and it just hangs on until hot weather returns. Weather colder than 60 degrees with no direct sun will ensure it quickly succumbs to rot or fungus and dies. Even in Central Texas it's been a challenge to create the ideal conditions for this plant. So if you live in NYC and rarely use the heat and only have North facing windows which means little direct, hot warm sunshine the plant will not survive very long there. You'd have to create a mini-greenhouse enclosure to even have a chance.

My understanding is that one of the ingredients from the same tree that you use for quinine so my bet would be, yes, this is probably a variation, but not a scientist nor a chemist so wouldn't swear to that. Wikipedia says "Cinchona officinalis is the botanical name for a tree that grows in the Amazon rain forest. Also called quinine bark, China bark, or Peruvian bark, it is the source of the anti-malarial drug quinine, which works by reducing fever and inflammation. The plant extract has a wide variety of other uses in homeopathic medicine and home herbal remedies."

We've never tried Paradise Tropical, but this one *is* tasty. We mix it 50/50 with Lipton and it has the perfect hint of Passion Fruit.

No, they are a more tropical plant. I'd say plan on keeping it indoors. They don't get very large as an indoor plant, about 12" high or so. They like lots of light and humidity and warmth.
