Fun Facts About The Herb Stevia
The plant featured in this post is an heirloom from the Rare Seeds Company. I plan to save seeds from it once it blooms.
The Stevia plant is considered rare, possibly due to its renowned leaves which, once dried, are utilized as a sweetener for beverages and desserts. The stevia powder is known to be 300 times sweeter than sugar. It is not winter hardy, with the exception of zones 8-10, and originates from Brazil and Paraguay. Find More Tips Below:
-
- perennial in zones 8-10
- at least 6 hours of sun
- easy to grow in hydroponics
- process the leaves by drying for use in drinks and cooking
- Stevia rebaudiana
