Please note: Due to potential shipping delays, we regret that we cannot accept orders from Okinawa for this item.

This is a Ruppia (Ruta graveolens) seedling, grown from cuttings in our garden. It's a healthy seedling that has survived the cold winter outdoors! It blooms with cute yellow flowers in early summer and produces seeds from July to August.

Seedling height: 36cm from the bottom of the .
After a few years, it will bloom abundantly like in the third photo.

It is resistant to both cold and heat. During the hot summer months, you only need to manage the watering carefully; otherwise, it can be left unattended. It withers in winter but will sprout again in spring if left outdoors. It grows better if planted directly in the ground.

When you touch the leaves, they have a unique sweet scent, like coconut, which cats seem to dislike. Since we planted this, stray cats have stopped coming to our yard! And the flowers are very cute! The scent is not noticeable unless you touch the leaves.

We will ship the seedling with the soil still attached to the roots, with the soil surface flattened and moistened, via Mercari delivery. This is for faster shipping, not for delivery. Plants are living things. We are not responsible for any issues during transit. Thank you for your understanding.
