Dreamtime story for Bush Plum 2 design by Gracie Morton:

Australia's flora is rich in aromatic plants such as eucalyptus, tea tree, boronium and mint, which are traditionally considered particularly effective in treating respiratory diseases. Aboriginal people used a variety of these plants to treat illness. Gracie Morton, a talented and experienced artist, has masterfully executed the depiction of plums. The Aborigines used the natural resources of their surroundings for medicinal purposes. They often used plants in their natural form, without any elaborate processing. They crushed or pounded the plant material to use as a poultice or poultice, or steeped it in water to make healing potions. Plants with medicinal benefits contain special ingredients such as tannins, latex and alkaloids, which play an important role in the production of various medications.
