Plantain Plantago Major

There are many recorded usages in new zealand by maori and pakeha from 1830 onwards, for treating scalds, burns, ulcers, malignant ulcers, suppurating sores, abscesses and boils, cuts and wounds and for drawing poison.
The broad leaf plantain seems to have followed the migration of colonists to every part of the world. In both america and new zealand it has been called "the englishman's foot" or "the white man's foot".
The saxons esteemed it highly and in the old "lacnunga" it is mentioned as one of the nine sacred herbs. In this most ancient source of anglo-saxon medicine, we find this "salve for flying venom".
