A cure for many things
Bulbine - a plant that is often forgotten and yet it is one that should be in every garden.
The delicate yellow flowers are loved by the beneficial insects and the fleshy leaves can be used in so many ways.
For example, the jelly like sap from the leaves can be rubbed on to the skin if you have been stung by a bee.
It will also sooth minor burns.
Insect bites like mosquitoes can be very itchy and the bulbine sap will solve this.
Sun burnt skin will be soothed by rubbing the gel on to the skin.
Bulbine is easy to grow and will spread easily.
It will grow in most soils and enjoys a sunny position.
As a container plant it also does well.
It is really a valuable plant to have in any garden.

Thank you for sharing. Might I suggest the #naturalmedicine tag for posts like this. We love to read about medicinal plants in that community. I would have loved to see more pictures of the plant to identify it better, as I've never heard of it before. How do you get the gel?

Thank you.
I love that it is a pretty little plant, as well as useful! Seems to have a lot of the same properties as an aloe vera plant!
Thank you, and your photographs are simply beautiful!
