Kapok Bush is an Australian flower remedy made from Cochlospermum fraseri. Useful for improving willpower and reacting to states of apathy, it is also useful for fatigue and low immune defenses. Let’s find out better.
Description of the plant
Cochlospermum fraseri – the name of the genus Cochkisoernun derives from the Greek koklo, wind, and sperm, seed, and refers to the ‘parachute’ attached to each seed, which facilitates its dispersion with the wind.
The common name Kapok Bush, on the other hand, refers to the shell of the seed which when ripe contains a soft substance similar to cotton: the aborigines used it to decorate the body, while the colonizers used it to stuff pillows and saddlebags.
It is a slender tree even if it reaches 3 meters in height and grows on rocky soils and on slopes in different areas of the Australian territory. In the dry season, when it loses its leaves, its yellow, aromatic and edible flowers are more noticeable; they have 5 petals, hairy sepals and several stamens.
