You can plant the coir pot directly into the ground, which will eliminate root disturbance and help keep your plant happy. The roots will make their way through the pot and into the soil. The pot itself will decompose within about two months in healthy, watered soil.

Description

Moringa drouhardii. 3.7L coir pot.

Native to south-western Madagascar, this fast growing, deciduous tree is a real delight.

The swollen trunk stores large amounts of water, similar to baobab trees.

The seeds are rich in edible oil and flocculating proteins, and the leaves can be eaten as a green vegetable.

White flowers.

Long seed pods.

The plant enjoys a full sun position in well draining soil, and should grow around 5m – 10m high in the garden.

Ideal for arid locations.
