Slender Riceflower

Pimelea linifolia

Description:

the bark of the Riceflower known as 'Bushman's Bootlace', but here's how to make string: Strip the bark, dry it, place in a stream for about one week, dry in sun, soften by chewing/beating with sticks and stones, roll on the thigh and spin into fine, strong thread. http://www.anbg.gov.au/aborig.s.e.aust/p...
