| Field notes | Shrub, flowers yellow. Maasai name: osinoni oibor (oibor ~ white) Branches with leaves are used for construction of walls in hut to plaster cattle dung on. Oloirrang'o ole Nayanga, Aldarpoi: the best for this purpose as it is flexible and resistent against the red ants, which eat the cattledung, so it is easy to repair the wall. Its rough surface is not seemed as important. Burning charcoal are used to clean calabashes. Branches with leaves are used to stir blood to liquidize coagulated blood. |
