What is Kratom?
Kratom is an herbal
leaf from a tree of the Rubiaceae family. It was first documented by
Pieter Korthals, a Dutch colonial botanist. Korthal gave the genus
Mitragyna due to the similarity of the stigma of the plant to a
bishop's mitre.
The Mitragyna
speciosa or kratom trees grow as tall as 12-30 feet and 15 ft wide.
Its dark green colored leaves can grow up to 7 inches long and 4
inches wide. All through out its flowering stage, the growing florets
are completely surrounded and covered by copious overlapping
bracteoles. The leaves fall or grow depending on the season. During
rainy season, the leaves grow abundantly while in dry season, the
leaves fall.
