Much more than just a decorative garden shrub, the Calliandra offers the gardener an efficient anti fungal treatment for the whole garden.

A simple decoction of the leaves and seeds, strained and sprayed in areas of fungal attack will help, in a very sustainable and bio-energetic way.

Analysis of the plant has also shown it to have moderate to strong radical scavenging properties and it is proving to be of great interest to the scientific community because of this.
