Analysing The Creeping Foxglove (Asystasian Gangetican) And Its Uses

Abstract

The creeping foxglove, Ganges or tropical primrose as is commonly called is a perennial herb, a native in tropical Africa and Asia, but has been introduced into tropical areas in North, Central and South America, Hawaii, West Indies, and Australia as ornamental herb and eventually escapes into natural and disturbed areas. Its uses are enormous and have some medicinal and nutritional values which this study documents. There is need for the general public and scientists to take advantage of these species.
