What is and where sesame grows

Everyone knows about the existence of sesame oil and its enormous benefits. The plant from the seeds of which it is produced, as well as the places of its growth, is a mystery to many.

Sesame or sesame is a herbaceous plant in the natural environment grows to three meters in height. Sesame blossoms with flowers of lilac or white. The flower blooms on the day and after self-pollination, a pod box begins to form with tiny seeds of red, black, yellow or white.

Sesame loves warmth. The plant is typical of the tropics and subtropics. There are currently no wild species. Since ancient times, culture has been grown in North Africa, India, Pakistan and Arabia. Later, residents of the Caucasus and Central Asia began to cultivate sesame seeds. In the Russian Federation, sesame is cultivated in the Krasnodar Territory.

Sesame can also be grown in temperate regions, but this is a laborious task. If you wish, try growing healthy spice in a summer cottage. Just remember, in the middle lane the height of sesame seeds does not exceed 80 cm and you won’t have to rely on a good harvest.
