Fagonia cretica, also known as Virgon’s Mantlem or Mantle of the Virgin, belongs to the Caltrop family and grows in arid desert areas of Pakistan, India, Africa, and Europe. The small spiny shrub has small, five-petal violet flowers, but it is the leaves that are used by Pakistani women to make a tea called dramah.
