Melaleuca Minor
A native of Australia and the islands of the
Indian Ocean. The leaves, being fermented, are distilled, and
yield an oil known as cajuput or cajeput oil, which is green, and
has a strong aromatic odor. It is valuable as an antispasmodic
and stimulant, and at one time had a great reputation as a cure
for cholera. In China the leaves are used as a tonic in the form
of decoction.
