A medicinal native herb, already known in ancient times! Only when used expertly, fumitory purifies the blood, stimulates bile and liver, and is a diuretic. Furthermore, yellow dye can be extracted from the plant. It grows mainly on sandy soil and, despite its delicate appearance, is very strong. The very fine leaves seem to emerge from the earth like smoke (Fumaria = smoke of the earth).
