In several reports of the late nineteenth century, buchu was described as \"about the size of a hedgehog.\" The leaves have an incredibly pungent aroma that is similar to peppermint that increases as the leaves are dried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePARTS USED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDried leaf and small flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTYPICAL PREPARATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTeas and tinctures.

The original usage of buchu by the natives of South Africa is somewhat unclear, as the word buchu is a general term in South Africa for aromatic plant. Some have theorized that it may have been applied topically as an insect repellant. The primary action of the herb is antimicrobial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"subhead-precautions\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePRECAUTIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecific:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not for use in pregnancy except under the supervision of a qualified healthcare practitioner.
