Pomaderris kumeraho
Pomaderris kumeraho or kūmarahou, also known as gumdigger's soap, is a plant endemic to the North Island of New Zealand. The name kūmarahou is a Māori word signifying a shrub.[1] Kūmarahou grows up to four meters in height, and flowers in September, with yellow blossoms. The name "Gumdigger's soap" was given owing to the lather created when the flowers were rubbed with water.

Medicinal uses
Kūmarahou has many uses in traditional Māori medicine, although there is little scientific confirmation of its benefits.[2] Infusions of the leaves have been said to relieve various respiratory ailments and skin disorders.[3]
gollark: You can't really get 3090s because Nvidia does not allow them to be used in datacentres. Apparently "vast.ai" has them (they run them not in datacentres or something) although I have never tried them for anything. I'm pretty sure there are various model hosting providers available.

gollark: Some of the documentation there mentions a GPT-89B, which is odd.
