DIY health tonic
If you have this plant in your garden or in a pot, try making this powerful homemade remedy:
1. Gather 180 g of fresh leaves, wash them, and blend into a juice (a meat grinder also works).
2. Add 500 g of honey and mix thoroughly using a wooden or plastic spoon.
3. Pour in 200 ml of freshly squeezed lemon juice and stir.
4. Store the mixture in a sealed glass container in the refrigerator.
5. Take 1 tablespoon three times a day, 30 minutes before meals.
Cooling drink for fever or congestion
Place a few clean leaves in a glass of fresh water and let them sit for at least an hour.
Add a peeled cucumber for extra refreshment.
Strain and drink cold, but limit to three glasses daily.
Note: this remedy is not recommended during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or for small children.
Rock rose plants are hardy and frost-resistant. They thrive on balconies or indoors, just like other succulents. Give them a sunny, dry spot and they’ll flourish with minimal effort.
