Cultivation
The plant does not resprout after cutting. After the stems have been harvested in Burundi, the stinging hairs are removed and the entire bark is removed from the stem, after which the inner bark is separated in one piece and dried. Usually monoecious, the plant is occasionally dioecious, in which case both male and female forms will need to be grown if seed is required
