Sun Dried Neem Flowers (Azadirachta indica) – Dried Veppam Poo – Nimba flowers – Neem phool – Dried Indian Lilac Flower

The evergreen NEEM tree (Azadirachta indica) is inherent in India and is also found in other southeast countries. As the neem tree has healing functionality, people love to call the neem “the village pharmacy.” It is also called ‘arista’ in Sanskrit, which means ‘perfect, complete, and imperishable.’The Sanskrit name for neem is ‘Nimba,’ which means ‘to give good health.’

Neem has been using in Ayurvedic medicine for more than 4,000 years due to its excellent medicinal properties. White and fragrant neem flowers with their off-white buds are good to eat and unbelievably therapeutic. The flowering period of the neem tree is generally between January and April. The neem flowers have a sweet, almost mystical jasmine-like scent at night time. They bloom once in the afternoon and then again in the evening. During the monsoon, you can see a bunch of flowers scattered right under the tree. 

Dried neem flowers are also known as Vepampoo in Tamil. They are commonly used in South India to cook various dishes like rasam, vepampoo/neem flower rice, pachadi, dried neem flower soup, lentils, and more. Dried neem flower powder is very similar to curry leaf powder. Also, they are often dry roasted and sprinkled on top of the dishes to garnish as well. Due to the health benefits of neem, all parts of this tree are used in ayurvedic treatment.
