Longevity spinach (Gynura procumbens) is a leafy vegetable which origins from South Asia and has been introduced into the U.S. in recent years. As it has many health benefits, more and more people in the US grow it.
In warm climates the plant is perennial, and will provide harvests for many years. In southern California, it harvests from spring to winter. The growth habit is spreading, with the floppy stems trailing on the ground or shelf.
Longevity spinach grows well in full sun or part shade. Growth slows or stops in cold weather. Hard freeze will kill the top growth, but in spring the plant quickly regenerates from the root system.
Benefits:The leaves and young stems can be eaten raw or cooked. It is an excellent salad green. The leaves can also be used on sandwiches in place of lettuce. Stems can be chopped in soups, stews, or vegetable medleys in the same way you would use celery.
In South Asian, it has been used, in folk medicine for generations, for treatment of inflammation, rheumatism and viral infections. Scientific studies have shown strong anti-inflammatory action and an ability to reduce type 2 diabetes.
