Description

Vrddhi is one among the astavarga and jivaniya dravyas.  Though its identification is doubtful, it is noticed that some Habenaria species are being used as vrddhi.  Bhavamisra recommended varahikanda as its substitute.  Rddhi and vrddhi together are known as rddhi dvaya.  The former is believed to be H. edgiworthi while the later is believed to be H. intermedia.
