Summary[edit]
| Description |
Cotyledon orbiculata Crassula Family. Seen at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens. This is a well-known medicinal plant. The fleshy part of the leaf is applied by many South Africans to soften and remove hard corns and warts. The Southern Sotho use a dried leaf as a protective charm for an orphan child and as a plaything. In the Willowmore District, the heated leaf is used as a poultice for boils and other accessible inflammations, in particular, earache. |
