About Moringa oleifera, Moringa Seed

Highly nutritious, edible leaves have earned Moringa its celebrated place among fast-growing tropical trees. Moringa oleifera, often called the drumstick tree, forms an open, airy canopy of feathery foliage and bears clusters of fragrant, creamy flowers followed by long slender pods. The young leaves, flowers and tender pods are all used in cooking around the world. It shrugs off heat and drought and can even be grown as a cut-back annual or container plant in cooler areas.
