Moringa, commonly also referred to as the drumstick tree, horseradish tree, or ben oil tree, is native to the Himalayan foothills of India and Bangladesh. Because moringa plants have long been used and revered in their native habitat for their amazing nutritious and medicinal qualities, they are also called the "miracle tree.”1
While moringa is accustomed to the South Asian tropical and subtropical climates, they adapt well to growing in other areas of the world as long as they are protected from cold weather and harsh frosts. Learn how to grow these miracle trees and reap the benefits of moringa all year long from the comfort of home. With a growth rate of at least 12-15 feet annually, it is one of the fastest growing trees. Plant the tree in the spring to take full advantage of the entire growing season.
