The Plant: Wild Dagga

Leonotis leonurus is a flowering shrub in the mint family, native to the grasslands and open landscapes of Southern Africa. Its common name, Lion’s Tail, refers to the distinctive clusters of bright orange flowers that grow along its stems.

The plant has a history of use in traditional Southern African herbal practices, including those associated with Khoikhoi and Zulu communities. Despite the word “dagga” in its common name, Wild Dagga is botanically distinct from cannabis and belongs to the Lamiaceae, or mint, family.

Understanding Wild Dagga Extract

An extract is produced by separating selected plant constituents from the original botanical material through an extraction process. The resulting product can differ in concentration, appearance, and composition depending on the plant material, extraction solvent, and manufacturing method.

Wild Dagga Extract provides a more processed botanical format than whole flowers, making it an alternative for customers interested in plant extracts rather than loose herbal material.

Extraction method: The precise extraction method and concentration depend on the product formulation. Refer to the product label for details about the extraction process, ingredients, and recommended handling.
