檳榔葉藤（小葉形式）<br><i>薺菜</i>

Paan or Piper betle is the leaf of a vine belonging to the Piperaceae family which includes pepper and kava.

The leaves are edible and mildly bitter and aromatic. In India and a few other Asian countries it is common to eat 'Masala Paan' (sliced betel nut, lime powder and other spices rolled up in betel leaves) after food. But it's also a beautiful ornamental climber in its own right.

Taller plants may be pruned to around 20cm ease of shipping.
