About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Sacha inchi is a climbing plant associated with the food traditions of tropical South America. Plukenetia volubilis is known for its distinctive fruit capsules and seeds used in processed foods and oil production. Its useful-plant history belongs to a tropical vine, rather than an ordinary culinary herb in a small edging bed.

Grow it on an appropriate support in a suitable warm environment, observing the leaves, flowers and developing capsules. A botanical food-plant collection can use it to explore the different sources of plant oils. Do not treat raw planting seeds as ready-to-eat nuts; safe food use depends on correct identification and processing. Fruiting and seed yield are later possibilities, not guaranteed outcomes from every seedling.
