The betel leaf plant is a branching vine, that may climb as high as 10-15ft, although it often grows as an understory ground cover. It is generally too tender to grow outside of the tropics. The plant prefers warm, humid conditions, but can tolerate some drought.
The betel leaf is used in a number of traditional remedies for the treatment of stomach ailments, infections, and as a general tonic. It is often chewed in combination with the betel nut (Areca catechu), as a stimulatory. Some evidence suggests that betel leaves have immune boosting properties as well as anti-cancer properties.
