Gotu Kola
Centella asiatica
4” pot
Traditional usage (Ayurveda): one of the Rasayana, said to increase mental clarity and impart long life. Used to treat ulcerations both internal and external, improve digestion and fight amoebic dysentery. Regular use imparts healthy color and tone to skin, treats eczema, psoriasis and rheumatism. Speeds healthy growth of hair, skin and nails. The young leaves are tasty in salads and may also be used in smoothies. The leaves are often juiced, the juice mixed with water and sugar to make a refreshing and cooling drink. Plant prefers warm sun and rich, fertile soil or fast-draining soil, appreciating side-dressing with compost or regular applications of liquid fertilizer (fish emulsion, kelp tea, compost tea). Water frequently. Space plants 2 feet apart–they spread!
