| Description | Macario Ruben Martinez and Maria Salazar Osollo talk about a plant called mowih, with small and elongated leaves. This plant has a medicinal use: it is used for bathing children who cry a lot. They give them a little tea made ??from the leaves to drink to cure them of fright. When boiled, the leaves make the water turn red. |
