Hi Ellen,

According to this website it is commonly grown wild in Townville,QLD so someone in North Queendsland can just collect some seeds for you.

The leaves are very nice in Vietnamese cuisines dishes .

Have you ever tried it Nguyet?

It is used for dishes such as :cây lá cách

-canh lá cách

-or dùng như rau ăn ghèm với bánh xèo

Hi Ellen,

I did not recognise the tree as lá cách.

Yes, My friend had one in her garden in Cairns 2 years ago. I did see the tree and try last time with bánh xèo when I was in her house.

At the time, some one tried to air laying some parts of some branches. I was told later that the tree died but I will double check for you this time and see if I can get you some seeds or some trees. Wish me luck.

Townsville is only 300 km from where I am going so I will try that area as well.

I wishes you LUCK, I wishes you LUCK, very much so Nguyet . hihihi

I just contacted the Townsvill tree planting department too.

Now would be an ideal time to propagate this plant, especially through cuttings , but not in summer, it will kill it .

Hi Nguyet

I've tried to contacted these people through the 2 links you've posted above, but so far I've got no answers back from them. :-(

Hi Ellen,

Thanks for letting me know. Not to worry, I have not been able to contact the friend so as soon as I could, I will let you know the outcome.

Anyway, will try my best, it could be soon or sometimes next year from another source.

Something is eating the La Cach!

Some of the La Cach plants have developed holes in the leaves. Please advise if it is due to some insects eating the leaves or if it might be due to some other cause like a deficiency. Need to work out what it is so I can treat it accordingly.

The treatment should not be a chemical as the leaves of La Cach are for eating so I don't want to use anything toxic. I am keen to make a dish with grilled beef wrapped in Premna leaves which is a delicacy also known as Thit Bo Cuon La Cach.

Await your most valued suggestions so I can get the plants to produce healthy intact leaves. Thank you.
