Leonotis leonurus (Wilde Dagga) Dried - Bulk

INCI: Leonotis leonurus

Soothe tension and support wellbeing inside and out with Wilde Dagga. Native to South Africa and surrounding regions, this herb is often called Lion’s Tail because its bright orange blossoms resemble a lion’s tail tuft. Used widely in Khoisan, Zulu, and Xhosa ethnomedicine, Wilde Dagga was traditionally smoked for relaxation or brewed as a tea to help with colds, bronchitis, stomach cramps, diarrhoea, constipation, and to promote general vitality during fevers, headaches, high blood pressure, and even snakebites.

♡ Why we love it: Wilde Dagga may not have the psychoactive effects associated with marijuana, but it’s naturally rich in diterpenoids, terpenes, phenols, alkaloids, and essential oils. This combination supports its soothing, chest-easing, cough-calming, and digestion-supporting qualities. It’s also known for its gentle relaxing effect, often felt as mildly sedative and lightly euphoric.

Applied externally, its extracts help ease inflammation and offer antimicrobial benefits for bites, wounds, and irritated skin. Traditional ointments made with Wilde Dagga were used to calm eczema, itchiness, and minor skin issues.

Sizes: 200g, 500g or 1kg.
