Fynbos and Protea discussion response:
Buchu in the Swartland - julie March 29, 2001
In response to Q: Buchu cultivation in Swartland - John A, March 14, 2001 :
- Cultivation of buchu is something which seems to be new to everyone, as until recently, the buchu that was being cut, was buchu growing naturally. Buchu is fairly sepcific as to where it chooses to grow naturally ie. at a certain altitude on south-west facing slopes. Hopefully, when it comes to cultivation, we'll be able to bend these rules a little. Grassroots Natural Products are at the forefront of establishing new plants either from seed or from cuttings (the latter hasn't been very succesful to date).
