Now, how could you not have something growing in your garden, with the name 'Immortality Vine'?

Also popularly known as ' Chinese Sweet Tea, Five-leaf Ginseng, Poor man's Ginseng, Southern Ginseng and Vitis pentaphyllum.

Used commonly to boost energy levels, strengthen the immune system, lower blood pressure and lower cholesterol levels, it is a beautiful little climber that is basically a short lived perennial.

It loves reasonably humus rich soil with full sun for a few hours per day, and something to climb on.

If you want to keep the herb indefinitely, you will need to grow several vines together as they are dioecious and the best way to get male and female plants is to keep several within pollination distance of each other.
