Day 30

  
Bubline Frutescens

Cat's Tail or Snake Flower
The bulbine frutescens hails from South Africa.  This is a great plant to have around if you have children.  The fresh leaves contain a substance that can be used like aloe for cuts, burns, insect bites, cold sores and so much more.  It has also been used in boiled water to treat coughs, colds and arthritis.  It's easy to grow and flowers continuously throughout spring, summer and fall.
