I Bought A Stevia Plant

Just bought a Stevia plant. Can't wait to see how that works. I'll grow it, dry the leaves, then use. Follow my progress. Will let you know.

I saw them at my local garden center... and tasted a small piece of a leaf. It's very yummy. I want to do research on how fast it grow/develops. If it lasts a while each season like mint, I'm going to add it to my yard. But I keep forgetting to do the research. ...May as well do that now. ;c}

That's pretty awesome. What do you do next? Just add the leaves to your foods? Or do you have to steep them and let the water evaporate so you have crystals? Seems like a lot of work for not a lot of stevia crystals. So what are you going to have to do?

Oh I just planted one too! I'm excited to try it out. I would think other than drying it, you could probably use it to infuse teas.

I plan to do that too, while it's growing, but at the end of the season I'll try to dry the leaves. I make a tea with lemon balm and mint. Stevia will go in there the next time I brew it.
