Firstly, thank you for the Hive! I really appreciate it.

I need to find that book. Sadly, this kind of thing happens more frequently than the public knows. There have been some significant cases around indigenous plants and knowledge in South Africa. Possibly the best known is around the Hoodia plant and it's application for weight loss.

I just googled Hoodia plant, funny enough how they describe the plant - smelly like rotten flesh and pollinated by flies is enough to put anyone off food!!! 😀
