We have a 'mother' tree on our lot & have rooted & given away many cuttings from her, along with seed - the seed oil makes one of the finest veg. oil - "ben oil' that does not go rancid & has been used in fine machinery for decades (sewing machine oils are often ben oil!)
Right now I am enjoying a fruit smoothie with moringa leaves... I use them for everything I would use spinach for... lasagna, salads, smoothies, & it is always there for the picking.... only problem for us is keeping it trimmed (common thread in our yard.... ;~)
here are just a few of the websites I have posted in the past on this plant:
