It's also incredibly easy to grow and attractive addition to the garden with its maple-like leaves and tidy growth pattern. It limits itself to about six feet in height. If you plant it with full sun, it will grow to a very large tall tree. But its leaves will grow small. Kind of as a "mother tree" to reproduce the species. Plant a row close together and you'll soon have a hedge. The plants tend to be open toward the bottom, so you can create a border with low- and medium-growing herbs. To grow your own, stake branches of about 40 centimeters in sandy soil with good drainage, and water regularly. It grows well in a median annual temperature of 25 C. or higher, and at altitudes of 0 to 1000 meters above sea level. In some states it is calledchaya colorchaya mansa.The botanical name isCnidoscolus chayamansa. Start harvesting as soon as you see a couple of new leaves sprouted. Cutting encourages new growth, and the branches are pretty in flower arrangements. The leaves are pretty bland, so you can add them to soups, casseroles, spaghetti sauces, salsas and salads without affecting the taste. The tiny, tender ones can go in omelets or salads or be used as garnish. The larger ones are best chopped and cooked long and slow. I've tried cooking them quickly, like spinach, and have not been happy with the leathery results. For a liter of tea, use 3-5 meadium size leaves with whatever blend you favor. I like two bags of black tea with two bags of mint and thechayaleaves, "cooked" in a glass bottle in thea sun for a couple of hours and then refrigerated. Soak the leaves in water with a disinfectant such as Microdyn, before using, as you do fruits and vegetables. Warning:In cooking or serving,Do not use aluminum containers, as a toxic reaction can result, causing diarrhea. Use pottery or glass.
