Indigenous Healing Plants is a fascinating compilation of the uses
of more than 140 indigenous plants, from well-known garden
favourites such as agapanthus and scented geraniums to lesser known
plants like agt-dae-geneesbossie and ashwaganda. Margaret Roberts,
in her inimitable style, shares the story of each plant's history
and its various uses - medicinal, in cooking, as natural insect
repellents and deodorisers - along with tried-and-tested recipes,
as well as brief notes on how to grow it in the garden. The plants
are illustrated by Sandy's full-colour photographs, alongside
Margaret's delicate line drawings. This fully updated and expanded
edition of Indigenous Healing Plants, which was first published in
1995, now includes an additional 15 indigenous medicinal plants as
well as a new section on naturalised weeds and foraged food plants.
This book records traditional wisdom and practical information on
the many uses of indigenous South African plants and will appeal to
anyone interested in health, gardening, cooking and homecrafting.
It also offers a historical perspective and botanical detail that
will be of interest to students of Botany, Homeopathy and Medicine.
