Gotu Kola is a medicinal herb that has been long used in traditional Chinese, Indonesian, and Ayurvedic medicines. With uses for boosting brainpower, promoting overall organ health, and healing various skin issues, Gotu Kola can also be added to salads and other meals as a mild, pleasantly tasting green. 

This plant is a ground crawler, and can even be used as a ground cover.  Gotu Kola prefers a partly shady, moist soil.  A very prolific plant when treated well.


CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Gotu Kola thrives in moist areas and is often found near rivers. It also requires filtered light or dappled shade. It does root as it trails along wet surfaces, and it can also be grown in hanging baskets for a beautiful display.
