Duabanga Grandiflora Edible Shade Tree 100+ Seeds, Rare Tropical Large Flowers
Duabanga Grandiflora
This beautiful tall tree is native to Cambodia, Eastern India, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam where it is found in evergreen rain forests. It is rare everywhere else in the world and certainly not in cultivation.
It grows up to 30m in height and has large buttresses. Buttresses are support structures that grow at the base of a tree trunk that provide a wide base and additional support for tall trees that grow in shallow or poor soil to prevent them from tipping over.
The large leaves of this species are 18-30 cm long and 6-10 cm wide and are arranged opposite of each other in a single plane on the branches. The flowers are arranged in clusters containing 3-20 flowers that grow at the ends of the branches. The white flowers can get large, with 4-8 petals, but they contain up to 50 stamens (pollen producing structures) which stick out beyond the petals. Said to have a brief unpleasant odor when blooms open up, but goes away.
The wood of this species is used for timber, and the bark is used as a fish poison. The fruits and leaves are boiled to make a black dye. The raw fruit is edible and can be used to make an acidic refreshing drink. They can be boiled and used as a vegetable as well.
It is a fast growing species and does best in a sunny position in warm humid climates. No matter what zone your in, treat it as a tropical that cannot tolerate frost.

(Real) Ingredients
(Real) Ingredients
We use real pronounceable ingredients that are ethically sourced and high quality for your product.
We either grow or work with local growers to source for our formulas. This supports the local economy, gives us the most potent plants & reduces reliance upon fossil fuels.
We make products from herbs that will grow here over herbs from the Amazon, China, or Africa. Oftentimes, those trendy herbs are taken in an unsustainable way & local people do not have access to their native medicines any longer. Bioregional herbalism is where it's at!

We are working to eliminate plastic from our packaging. Currently, 99% of our packaging is metal, glass, or paperboard. We are always looking for ways to eliminate microplastics from your body and the planet!
How to Use
How to Use
Herbal remedies, supplements, and tonics are fundamentally different from pharmaceuticals (and we like it that way). They are designed to restore your body and its systems to homeostasis gently- working with your body.
Specifics on dosages and administration for all products are in our FAQ. Find the FAQ in the menu under the "About" Section.
We post basic dosage guidelines, but keep in mind if you have more body mass or a faster metabolism than the average bear, you may need to take a larger dose than indicated. If there are hard-and-fast limitations on how often you can take the product, it will be listed on the package. Most can be used up to six times daily without problems (but we doubt that you would need to do that).
Remember, there are no "magic bullets" in life, and any product (herbal, pharmaceutical, or otherwise) claiming 100% success without knowing you, your constitution, and your lifestyle is lying and trying to get into your wallet. Often, herbalists (and MDs) need to try several products before we find the one that works for your unique biochemistry.
Feel free to email us if the product didn't quite do the job, we can recommend another that could do the trick. We are blessed with many plants that have the same action in the body- and often it's just a matter of finding the right one for you.
