ISHS Acta Horticulturae 318: II International Symposium on Specialty and Exotic Vegetable Crops

SAUROPUS ANDROGYNOUS, A COMMON PERENNIAL VEGETABLE IN BORNEO ABOUT TO BECOME AN EXPORT CROP

Author:   MARTIN L. PRICE
Abstract:
SAUROPUS ANDROGYNOUS, is an important vegetable in Borneo, but apparently little known elsewhere. The raw leaves have an exceptionally pleasant taste for a "green," and are produced throughout the hot, humid summer of southern Florida without the need for pesticides. A new use has been developed in Malaysia which may turn it into an export crop.
