I know that the environment may soon attract haters for presenting plants, or rather seeds of plants brought from long journeys, and they may pose a threat to our ecosystem because they may be invasive, have a destructive effect on our vegetation, etc.

I grow plants at home, I do not spread them outdoors. Their seeds are available on the Internet and in all gardening stores, but mine do not have the certificate - these are the opinions I have heard, and importing them to Europe is punishable - to put it mildly - I don't give a damn about this European murder, and I will do it as soon as I can. ... 😁

Although these plants can be found all over the world in tropical and subtropical regions, I saw them in Tanzania, but there was no need to take them because I still had seeds from another region. I brought these from Martinique while traveling in the Caribbean.

I planted 6 seeds. Only one plant has survived to this day. After just a few weeks, it was clear which ones had the strength to live and which ones would die quickly.

We were enchanted by the flowers and seeds of this plant, they were magical. The seeds are black, round or oval-shaped, very hard balls. They are covered with a leather resembling suede. They look wonderful. As we later learned, they are used to produce natural jewelry, such as bracelets, earrings, beads or pendants. Indeed, in Zanzibar you could find products using these seeds.

I will not write about the plant itself, because information can be found on the Internet. All he will say is that it looks great at home. It has lush, evergreen leaves and does not shed them at all. Growing the plant is simple, but it prefers very sunny places and good soil, so we feed it and change the soil regularly. We hope for flowers soon.
