Includes: 100 Trufil caps Saw Palmetto: The Indestructible Plant?
Well, it certainly seemed that way to farmers and homesteaders in Florida and the southeastern United States, where the plant grows wild. Saw Palmetto, Serenoa repens, is so tough that burning does not kill it, and ordinary hoes and ploughs leave enough of its root behind for it to simply regrow. This made for a real problem for folk wanting to clear land for crops or building, and in the end special machinery was developed to do the job.
The Shamans of the Native American nations had been using Saw Palmetto berries in their herbal mixtures for centuries before the arrival of white settlers. They regarded it as an effective aid for men with waterworks problems. The newcomers followed their example and the berries have continued to be used ever since.
Nowadays Saw Palmetto is recognised not only as the source of a valuable herbal extract but also as a good local plant to use in gardens and landscaping, and it is grown from seed for those purposes. So the indestructible weed that they tried to get rid of has become a useful plant in cultivation!
