Editor's note: Native to Paraguay, stevia has been used for centuries both medicinally and to sweeten up food and drink. Although it’s been popular in Japan for over fifty years, the US and EU were slower to catch on. However, stevia products are now mainstream and are hailed as miraculous for calorie reduction while still feeding the ol’ sweet tooth. It’s a lovely plant that puts on white flowers and thrives in warmth and humidity. Enjoy some beautiful Stevia wallpapers!
