About Jiao-gu-lan (gynostemma pentaphyllum)
This vigorous perennial vine is hardy to 10 degrees and can climb 20 to 30 feet in a season. Jiao gu lan prefers a moist, partly shaded location and responds well to a fertile garden soil. Quite easy to grow and will produce a large crop to harvest for tea.
According to legend, the Chinese Emperor Fu Shou (lucky immortal) was a skilled ruler, creative scientist, and patron of the arts. One of his far-sighted edicts required that all drinking water be boiled as a hygienic precaution.
While visiting a distant region of his realm one day, he and his court stopped to rest. As his servants began to boil water for everyone to drink, dried leaves from a nearby plant fell into the water and a aromatic liquid was infused. Curious, the emperor drank some and found it very refreshing ~ slightly bitter and a little sweet.
A refreshing drink appears within the pages of Chinese meditation texts as early as the 13th century. By the 16th century, the 'Herb of Immortality' is listed in a variety of holistic texts throughout China.
Since the 16th century, Jiaogulan has been referred to in Chinese medical texts as the 'Herb of Immortality.' Today, it is commonly used as a healthy beverage in China, Thailand and Japan.
