10 seeds/purchase
A large, perennial herb to about 3 m tall in the Marantaceae family with large, ribbed leaves on very slender stalks produced from an undergound rhizome. The inflorescence is produced at
ground level and holds purplish flowers followed by bright red fruits that are edible and incredibly sweet, up to 3000 times sweeter than table sugar. They actually contain little sugar but a substance called Thaumatin that has high potential as a low
calorie sweetener. Thaumatococcus danielli is native to rainforests in western and central Tropical Africa. It adapts well to cultivation.
