Oh I loved the fact you went for a local ginseng that is of use to you, and this post is so incredibly detailed with the photographs and your very clear writing. I had no idea about jawa ginseng! I'm glad the contest gave you the opportunity to explore something in your back garden as well - really impressive exploration!

What does it taste like? I now have a craving for noodles - maybe I'll make some for dinner, but I dont have the ginseng to go in them! Great post, @anngreklestari!!
