When I was little girl growing up ; my mom will go at market on Friday . she always have in her basket saajon; to cook fish curry. I am from GUYANA. We know it by that name. Thanks to internet.i have learn so much. Presently i have a morniga in my yard. Very young tree.thanks for the video.
Great video as always. Very informative and at the end the recipe section is very good. Ppl shoukd know more about moringa plant because its super food.
Your Moringa leaves are beautiful specimens... we use them as an astringent in skincare, in soap for infection and to combat scalp issues in shampoo. ~ Recipes are always nice!
Thank you so much for this. I am in the So Cal desert and I think the Moringa will do well here. Especially if it will produce food during the summer months. The recipes and preparation tips are very helpful.
yes, love your recipies. My wife and I really enjoy how informative all your videos are. Just great. We have been subscribed for a long time and use your advice when we plant our gardens.
Hi California gardening! Enjoyed the video and recipes! I grew up eating what you call moringa. We call it Kalamungai or marungai ! I am half Filipino so my Dada would cook this a lot! I think that's why Filipinos look so young! Lol. Thank you again and yes it would be nice to have recipes with the different vegetables that you grow!! Good gardening! Aloha Paulette
Lovely tree you have! My moringa seeds have arrived in the mail and I look forward to planting them after germination eventually. Yes absolutely great to see veggie recipes for moringa leaves and drumstick pods.... Can't wait to have my own tree.
really like your food, much more interesting with so much flavor with spices. ur vids and quality is GREAT. always looking for this thanks , its hard to find moringa tree in s fl but i know it does grow here.
+s Buzz Thanks! Nice to know you liked the recipes and food. And your feedback on the video quality is much appreciated! I am trying to learn something new each day as far as video production goes so your feedback really helps! I think you can grow Moringa easily in FL. Just order some seeds (Try: the PKM1 strain - excellent for FL weather: amzn.to/1Q4GAEO ) and then germinate them (see my other moringa video) and then they grow very fast. Good luck!
We use the leaves to make chicken tinola... Sometimes mussel tinola or even curry soups & the pods to cook bulanglang or any veggies stew. Filipinos like me eat this pretty much in anything lol 😂
I think I have some growing wild here I will look more this spring they have pods like yours only they are real small. I just thought they were shrubs trees when I bought the home here. I plan on really nurturing them this next season. Thanks again California for this very important video!!
Hi CA...Just wanted to say thanks for the exposure to new possibilities. I dont think this one is for me but I do appreciate your work on giving us the video...great production as usual. Have a good weekend my friend. :-)
You are blessed to have the climate to grow Moringa. Thank you so much for the recipe. I might be able get my hands on Moringa in London. I'm going off meat and I'm looking for a good vegetable based produce that has plenty of protein
+Patrick Meehan Thanks! Yes our climate is pretty good. Nice to know that you are going off meat! I think you'll be a lot healthier! Yes plants like moringa and seeds like quinoa are great protein sources!
@@CaliforniaGardening Thank you for answering. I purchased a sapling online this spring, it's not thriving but it's not entirely dead. I will keep your offer in mind if my moringa sapling doesn't make it.
Hello, Yes I really enjoy your recipes for many reasons #1 being there using the items that ur teaching me to grow #2 there healthy #3 I'm a Ga girl so I have to search the markets to find the items that you use in deapth! Lol My coworker referred me to a market that has items from India so I'm in luck. thanks
+Vaishu Renghanatan Thanks! Yes you should be able to grow it in UT. But I am not sure how cold the nights get during winters, if it goes below 40 you might have trouble! In that case you can grow it in containers and get it indoors during cold nights.
Thanks for sharing. I didn't know the plant was winter hardy. I shall be purchasing one soon. I would be grateful if you have any more advise for me. I live in UK.
+Eric Glass Actually moinga loves the warm humid climate of zone 9b. You should try growing it! I am in Zone 9B but slowly leaning towards 10 due to the gradual temperature increases int he past 30 years!
any plans on growing flowers? its just that you explain things so nicely, it would be great if you teach few things about growing flowers. just a suggestion
+karthikeyan alaguraja I am in Zone 9B. Yes you can put this in the ground but if you get a freeze, you might be better off planting this in a container and moving it to a greenhouse (like this one: amzn.to/1Q4GY6k) or indoors at nights.
That plant has beautiful leaves! I have never heard of this plant and would love to know if it grows here . Unfortunately, I agree with +Fruits for Life.. I live in the Pacific Northwest and it's pretty soggy here. What veggies and plants are good around here to add color and beauty?i still have tomato plants and peppers, thanks to your video on adding compost.
+lori amora Hello! 1) You can buy the seeds on amazon: amzn.to/1Q4GAEO and 2) See this guide for starting moringa seeds: th-cam.com/video/_ta4UKZ9Mdc/w-d-xo.html
Where did you buy your moringa tree? I live in Southern California, haven't seen it around. I have a tree but i planted it when it was a little cold, the leaves are turning yellow 😢
a friend of mine has a tree in Florida. I took some of the leaves and pods but I took the big pods thinking those were better. I'm drying the leaves to make tea but I would like to know how I can plant the seeds to get my own tree. thanks
I saved sm cuttings of the brunches whn my neighbour trimmed hers. It grows well...started with diameter of 4cm X 60cm..in a big pot..gave it 50% sunlight n water every other day. Replanted it in the garden n now it is taller thn me..lots of flowers n pods. Need trimmings every 3 months. May be it is easier coz we get sunlight 12h/d.. all year round.
Aren't they a pretty tree/plant. No way would that grow here in North Uk. Pity, it would be good to try. V wet here now and unusually 15* daytime but about 6* night and my garden is like a quagmire with clay and daily rain. What do moringa taste like? Is it peppery? Would love to try that first recipe. Might order some seeds and see if we have a good summer next year. Nothing lost if it doesn't work. I have a sheltered place which in summer gets all the sun.
+Marina Wilson You can grow it in a pot and in the summer put the pot outside and if you feed it Nitrogen rich fertilizer it will grow fast. You can harvest leaves periodically all through summer. As soon as temps hit 50F bring it inside. It will drop most leaves but will live inside in a semi dormant state. It usually does not fruit when grown this way.
My moringa tree in India had seasonal invasion of the hairy caterpillars invading the bark of the tree. The caterpillar hair will cause intense skin itch. I am growing one in Australia, hope I wont have this pest issue. Do you get this pest in USA?
+damnfunny2001 I know which pest you are talking about. Interestingly, I haven't seen this caterpillar in our region, here in the US. Its the caterpillar from a specific butterfly. You can try spraying a diluted solution of neem oil around the bark to control them. Good luck!
How does one grow a Moringa tree? I would like to grow one. How do I obtain a tree start? Does it grow from seed, a cutting...? Also, I have tried to grow a curry leaf tree several times with no success. Can you help?
If people knew the value of the moringa tree, more people would be growing it...but sadly people don't take the time to learn about what's good for them.
I'm in zone 10 in south Spain. I planted 4moringa seeds last February 2015. The trees are planted outside and are about 1 meter tall, but since we had a heavy rainfall 2 weeks ago the leaves are turning yellow and are falling off. (the older ones first) What is the cause of this? what can I do?
+TheTrueabundance Its OK for moringa to go dormant in cooler weather and drop some yellow leaves. Let is warm up a bit more and the moringa should spring back to life.
I always like seeing what people do with their harvest. As always, I enjoyed your video.
Great information. We enjoy moringa. Best wishes Bob.
kalamongay... yum yum... love this
Your tree is doing so good!!! I am sure many will grow moringa in the US after seeing your tree with the pods👍👍
Thank you! Yes we had a nice warm summer this year. The morninga pods were awesome!

I love moringa, unfortunately they won't survive in my climate 😢😢. Nice update and nicely explained . Cheers
Thank you! I wish you could grow it!
+Fruits For Life You can grow it in a pot and can harvest leaves in the summer, if you live in a cold climate.
Hi, thank you for your videos. Very helpful.
