Onagre vegetable oil


Fleur d'Onagre

Origin of vegetable oil of ostrich

Originally from North America, the ostrich (Oenothera biennis) is a biannual wild plant with erect stem from 0.440 to 1.50 m that usually grows on well drained soil. The name of anointed was given by the botanist Pitton de Tournefort because of the likeness of his leaves with the ears of the donkeys, hence his nickname "the grass to the donkeys". This plant was introduced in Europe in the 1600s where it was implanted without problems. We can find, during ballads, various species of oengres (evening bonus) or in urban areas the "redish sepal wave" variety. From June to September, the grove bears large sulphur yellow flowers that will give fruit from 2 to 3 cm. At the end of the summer, when the plant dries, we can recover small black seeds or let it dry on its own.

Before being known in Europe, the Amerindians consumed the root and seeds of the ostracian to feed and used the plant in infusion in hot water to treat injuries, bruises, skin problems and other indispositions.
