Buchu’ – Agathosma betulina and Agathosma crenulata (Rutaceae): A reviewMoolla, A, Viljoen, AM 17 July 2008 (has links)
South Africa has offered the world two indigenous aromatic plants from which commercially important
natural products have been developed: Pelargonium graveolens (and its hybrids) the source of geranium oil
and Agathosma betulina, from which ‘Buchu’ oil is produced. Despite the historical use of ‘Buchu’ and the
commercial interest developed around this coveted indigenous resource the (limited) research has not
been coherently assembled. This overview aims to unite aspects on the botany, traditional and modern
day uses, chemistry and pharmacological data on ‘Buchu’ which is undeniably one of South Africa’s most
renowned botanical assets.
