Moringa “Miracle” Tree
Miracle tree indeed – Moringa is said to be one of the most nutritious plants on the market. Moringa powder is becoming increasingly popular online for its health benefits including protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and much more – so why not make your own? The leaves of this tree are the main attraction, however the seeds and even the roots are edible as well. Eat the leaves fresh off the tree or dry them out to make them last longer (easily turn dried leaves into Moringa powder using a food processor).
The Moringa tree is an extremely fast grower, being able to put on 6-8 feet of growth in one growing season. They are frost sensitive, so treating them as a perennial or putting them in a container is recommended. Leaves may be harvested before the first frost and the trunk may be cut down to the ground so that the tree will re-establish itself in the spring. Pruning is key for this plant to ensure a large canopy and plentiful leaves to harvest.

Shipping Information
Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.
The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door: We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!
Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
