50 Seeds Gotu Kola Centella asiatica

Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) is a low-growing perennial herb prized for its round, scalloped green leaves and creeping habit. It forms a dense, attractive ground cover in moist, shaded spots and is easy to grow from seed with consistent warmth and moisture.

Often grown in containers, bog gardens, or along pond edges, Gotu Kola thrives in consistently damp soil and can be used as a leafy green in salads and fresh dishes. Its trailing stems root at the nodes, gradually spreading to fill bare, shady areas.
