Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, encompasses a vast array of natural remedies derived from various plants and herbs. One such plant is Efedra or Mahuang (Ephedra distachya and Ephedra altissima), known for its medicinal properties. Another herb commonly used in Ayurvedic treatments is Centella, also called Indian pennywort or gotu kola (Centella asiatica). Its healing abilities have been recognized for centuries. Intriguingly depicted in a handcoloured lithograph by Hanhart after David Blair's botanical illustration from 1880, we can witness the beauty and diversity of these herbal wonders. The Golden rain tree or canafistula (Cassia fistula) stands tall with its vibrant yellow flowers, renowned for their purgative qualities. The Greater galangal or Thai galangal (Alpinia galanga) adds a touch of exoticism to Ayurvedic practices with its aromatic rhizomes widely used in traditional medicines and culinary delights. Abelmosk, also known as ambrette or annual hibiscus (Abelmoschus moschatus), offers an enticing fragrance that has captivated many throughout history. Tropical chestnut or nawa tree (Sterculia balanghas) provides not only shade but also therapeutic benefits to those seeking relief from certain ailments. Gomphia nitida showcases its delicate blooms while Hill glory bower (Clerodendrum infortunatum) mesmerizes with its striking red flowers. The Coralbush (Jatropha multifida) entices onlookers with its unique foliage resembling coral formations underwater. Nepal trumpet flower (Beaumontia grandiflora) enchants all who lay eyes upon it with its large white blossoms emitting a sweet scent.
