Wild Dagga Plant, also known as Lion's Tale Plant, is a perennial evergreen herbaceous shrub native to South Africa. It is highly ornamental, with bright yellow-orange flowers perched on long stems above leathery, toothed leaves, creating a striking garden specimen.

Traditionally, Dagga has been used by various African tribes as a smoking herb, and it is not a scheduled substance in the United States. It is commonly included in legal over-the-counter smoking blends with other herbs and is sometimes mixed with tobacco. The effects are mellow and relaxed. Medicinally, it is associated with anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, and antinociceptive properties, and it has been used in the traditional treatment of tuberculosis, diabetes, and epilepsy.
