Achacha, Achachairú (Garcinia humilis)
from $64.95
If you are a gardener known to dance to the beat of your own drum, cultivating the "A-cha-cha" could be your next great pick!
Gardeners of all levels can’t resist the lure of the Achacha tree. Garcinia humilis is native to South American countries like Bolivia, Peru, and Brazil, where locals know it as “Achachairú.” Its cultivation began with indigenous communities in the tropical lowlands of the Amazon Basin, and it has been traditionally used as a hunger suppressant and in skin healing. The name was adapted from Achachairu to simply Achacha for marketing purposes in Australia, where it was recently approved for commercial growth and is propelling Achacha into popularity on the world’s fruit platter.
The Achacha is native to medium-altitude rain forests, so it grows well in shady, humid climates in soil with good porosity. The Achacha tree can be slow growing, but eventually fruits with an abundant rhythm. Achacha trees grow to about 10-15 ft tall.
Its bright orange, egg-shaped fruits are said to be most similar to Mangosteen in flavor, but with about half of the sugar content! Achacha fruits grow enclosed in a rind, which keep for 4 to 6 weeks at room temperature once harvested. The rinds, rich in antioxidants, can also be infused and chilled into a sweet, tangy drink.
This plant has super potential! Along with numerous purported nutritional benefit, Garcinia humilis is also considered a good candidate for rain forest restoration efforts in areas of South America that have been damaged by deforestation and burning.
Our Achacha trees in size medium are grown from seed and known to fruit prolifically within 6 years of planting. Our Achacha plants in size large are also grown from seed and capable of producing within 5 years.

Native to Central and South America, Arrowroot has been used for centuries as a food thickener, dietary staple, and natural remedy.

Arrowroot is a hardy, low-maintenance plant that grows well in tropical and subtropical climates, making it a valuable addition to gardens focused on both ornamental and practical uses.
Distinctive Features, Uses, and Nutritional Value
Rhizomes: Arrowroot's arrow-shaped rhizomes are tuberous and starchy, serving as the source of the plant’s famous arrowroot starch. The starch is highly digestible and gluten-free, making it ideal for those with dietary sensitivities. It is commonly used as a thickening agent in cooking. It is a low-temperature friendly starch and can also be boiled down alone to create a jelly. Its roots are peeled and grated into water where it’s dried after several rinses and made into a powder flour. The creeping rootstalk tubers are perfect for cultivating thicker textures in sauces, soups and so on.
Foliage: The plant has large, bright green, lance-shaped leaves that grow upright, making it both attractive and functional in garden landscapes.
Growth Habit: Arrowroot grows as a clump-forming herbaceous perennial, reaching 3-5 feet tall. The plant spreads via underground rhizomes and can be grown in containers or garden beds. It takes a bit of patience to grow, requiring up to 12 months of humid weather to squeeze as much starch as it can, but it’s worth the wait! Arrowroot has been growing in use because of its easy to digest characteristics.
Culinary and Medicinal Uses

$19.95
Ashwagandha, also known as Winter Cherry or Indian Ginseng, is an annual medicinal herb plant from the Nightshade family. It is cultivated heavily in India and is native to parts of the Middle East, the Indian Peninsula, and the Himalayan regions.
Ashwagandha is an annual or short-lived perennial that features elliptical green leaves and small white bell shaped flowers. The flowers grow into lantern like cases, which contain bright red cherries bearing dozens of tiny seeds. The root is ready to harvest 150 to 180 days after planting, just as the berries have formed and the leaves have begun to yellow.
Ashwagandha is widely known for its medicinal properties in Ayurvedic medicine; the root being the most commonly used part. Taken as a tea or in tincture form, it is believed to reduce anxiety and depression, and to help achieve mental clarity and boost the immune system. Studies show that its potential medicinal effects are due to the presence of alkaloids and steroidal lactones within the plant that promote anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-stress, and antioxidant effects. It's a great medicinal plant for any herbalist's garden!
Ashwagandha is an essential herb in our medicinal garden and food forest. We carefully harvest its roots in the fall by digging up the entire plant and separating the roots from the base of the plant. We remove the red berries (seed pods) from their lantern casings then sun dry the roots and the seeds separately.
