From the sleeve: "Margaret Roberts' fourth book concentrates on the traditional ways in which indigenous plants have been used medicinally and otherwise in South Africa for centuries.

"The book is an important contribution to the literature on indigenous South African plants, combining botanical detail with a historical perspective and providing practical information for the health enthusiast, gardener, cook and pot-Poruri maker".
