Gloriosa superba is a tropical creeper that grows wild in Sri Lankas

warm, moist environment, looking much like the sweet potato plant. It is
deadly poisonous, a single ounce being enough to cause stomach cramps,
vomiting, diarrhoea and death.
In the past, Sri Lankas traditional healers used a paste derived from
Gloriosa has been shown to have even more valuable medicinal properties.
Its seeds and roots contain the alkaloid colchicine, which has many uses
in the pharmaceutical industry. The drug has been used to treat gout and
rheumatoid arthritis and Colchicine derivatives are now being employed in
cancer chemotherapy.

 1 What is TU-GET ?

Extracting Colchicine is a complicated process which cannot yet

be done in Sri Lanka. A single plant produces nearly 2,500 seeds weighing
about 40 grammes. The Colchicine-containing seeds are exported to countries
such as the United States and Germany which have the industrial facilities
required to process them.

At present, in addition to the seeds obtained from plants growing

in the wild, there are just over 30 acres under Gloriosa cultivation in Sri
Lanka. Plans are afoot to extend this, the majority of growers being small
farmers, who cultivate the creeper in little plots in between rows of cowpea,
soya and beans.

Thanks to its medicinal properties, this wild plant, which until a few
years ago was considered just a poisonous weed, is proving to be a lucrative
cash crop for Sri Lanka farmers.
