Leonotis leonurus Powder, commonly known as Wilde Dagga or Lion’s Tail, is a bulk powdered traditional South African botanical used in herbal and ethnomedicinal practice. Indigenous to South Africa and surrounding regions, Wilde Dagga has been used by Khoisan, Zulu, Xhosa and other communities in preparations for relaxation, chest comfort, coughs, colds, stomach cramps, diarrhoea, constipation and general wellbeing. It is also traditionally used externally in soothing preparations for insect bites, itchiness and irritated skin. The bulk powder format suits experienced herbal makers and small-batch formulators working with traditional local botanicals.

♡ Why we love it: Wilde Dagga has a strong South African botanical heritage and a distinct soothing profile. The bulk powder format is useful for repeat-use blending, careful infusions and external preparations where quick measuring and consistent texture are needed.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in a smaller retail size.
