Brahmi plants practically grow themselves. Thriving under substandard conditions, the brahmi herb prefers consistently moist to wet soil and can even grow in water gardens. Try planting in a marshy area such as by a pond or river embankment. This creeping herb makes a great ground cover and blooms continuously from Spring to late Fall. Make sure to prune back every other year as Brahmi plants can be somewhat invasive if not kept in check. We are proud to offer bacopa monnieri plants for sale.
