Trevesia palmata (Micholitzii)
Snow flake tree
An artist must have designed these leaves resembling giant snow flakes. The bush reaches in nature a size of up to 5 meters and prefers the shaded environment of a mountain rainforest.
Planted in pots and kept indoors this species makes a great room design and does not need much sunlight. A perfect alternative for the Christmas tree.

Your
ecologically friendly production of ornamentals:
proudly traceable!
Imagine, the traceability of your supply chain leads your
customers to the tropical jungles of the Mekong river and to the Himalayan
mountains where Tibet meets Yunnan. Immerged in diverse culture and rich
biodiversity, your customers can visit the places and people where your
organic products start from pristine soils, clean air, and where they
support the livelihood of local ethnic communities.
Would this add to the sustainability and credibility of your company?
Would your trademark benefit from international
research publications lauding your company's involvement in saving the
rain forest?
If you are in the food, cosmetics, flower, herbal, and medical business,
certifying your products as contributing to rain forest and biodiversity
protection will be an advantage with a competitive edge.
The TianZi Biodiversity Centre is working with German Universities to
design land use systems, which are bound to change paradigms: we promote
rare agro-biodiversity species, manage complexity, and find alternatives
to destructive forms of mono culture.
If all this is in line with your company's business concept - please contact
us.
The TianZi Team.
Tropical Xishuangbanna is famous for its Dai Medicine. The Dai ethnic people have identified more than 2000 plants, animals, mushrooms, and minerals which are used to cure a wide variety of illnesses.
Most important: herbal medicine is designed not only to heal but more prominently to make sure that the disease will not have any chance to attack you in the first place.
Many of the medicinal species make very interesting garden and indoor plants. We have made a selection of peculiar but also endangered medicinal herbs because it is our goal to secure their survival through mass-propagation and cultivation, and we contract grow them with local ethnic communities of our area to help improve their livelihood.
For some of the more common herbal medicines which usually come as tea or food additives you may go to our page on traditional medicine.
Contract

If you are interested to have specific plant species grown by us for import
