Bush Plum 2 - Red

Designed by Gracie Morton

Australian Flora is particularly rich in aromatic plants such as eucalyptus, tea trees, boronias, and mints and these plants have always been considered especially suitable for treating respiratory diseases. Aborigines have used a large number of them for treating illnesses. Gracie Morton is a skillful and experienced artist who depicted plums in an excellent way.

Australian Aborigines have drawn on the resources of the environment for medicines. Many plants have been used, generally without elaborate preparation. Plant material is very often bruised or pounded to use as a poultice or extracted with water to be taken internally. Plants of medicinal values contain extra chemicals, tannins, latex, alkaloids which are useful for making many medicines.

Aboriginal Designs from Australia are printed on beautiful 100% cotton fabric by M & S Textiles. They are colorful, artful and have a smooth soft feel. 

These designs contain visions of wild desert flowers, dancing spirits, spirit people, animals, winds and currents, and depict parts of authentic Aboriginal life.
