Melientha is a genus with a single species, Melientha suavis, a small tree or shrub from Southeast Asia whose young leaves are a prized wild vegetable. It is rarely grown as an ornamental, so most care details below are general and uncertain.
In Vietnam, the plant is called Rau Sắng. It is considered a food delicacy.
