Hi steemit friends, I'm a little busy with the academic milieu. This is the factor of almost not posting new content in the @biolegria blog. More I would like to share with you a curiosity that I found in a page on facebook about the plant species (Xanthorrhoea australis). This plant was used by
Indigenous Australians who doused the flowering peak with water to produce a sweet drink. The bases of soft white leaves were eaten well as the point of stem growth. The flower spike emanates a resin that could be used as an adhesive in the making of tools and the stem used for the underside of a spear. The rods were also used to make a base for a fire drill to start a fire. The resin was also collected and sent to commercial processors, where it was made in veneer for cabinetmakers' furniture.
