Mexican Flame Vine,Bitter Melon and the Pancreas

[Guest guest]

Dear Herbalists,

Has anyone planted a Senecio Confusos (Mexican Flame Vine)?

Can anyone give me any info about it as a Medicinal Plant?......

Also - has anyone planted a Bitter Melon?(Momordica Charantia) as

Ireally fancy ordering some seeds from Horizon Herbs for this one - it

has such a great Medicinal Value for helping the pancreas to produce

insulin - actually - there was someone on this list who made a tincture

- is she still on the list?)..........Love Penny (who is getting spring

fever...)

Hi, Penny. I grew bitter melon a few years ago from Horizon Herb seed.

It grew very easily, grew fruit very easily but I never used them so

didn't grow it again. It was in the days of - haven't got that herb,

better grow one! Since then I have come to my senses......at least

partially!...........Joan
