They would use the vine of this plant as rope to help carry coolamon with kids. Make like a bag and carry the kids in this. My grandmother was called Arratherrk and her sister was calle Pwelk, the leaf of the bush banana. At Elkedra there is two vine trees and each sister is named after each one.

On my grandmothers and grandfathers country after the rain I remember the smell of bush melons. I know that they are sweet and ready to eat at this time. They grow along the ground, I would lift the vine up and find all the yellow fruit.
When I was a little girl I would go and collect the seed from the altywart grass with my grandmothers. They would teach us how to hang on to the tree and grind the seeds with our feet. We would carry the seed in our coolamon back to the camp, then make damper cook it on the fire and eat with our families.
My country. When I go hunting out bush, as we drive along the road towards the hill you can see the beautiful land and the flowers blooming on the side of the road, and near the hills, even the beautiful gum trees. It makes me proud

My great Grandmothers Country is where we go hunting. We hunt goanna and bush turkey. We swim in the river. We look for bush banana, bush potato and wild oranges. I am inspired by the beautiful wild flowers that grow there. Being on my Great grandmothers country makes me happy and content.
We go bush hunting and find bush banana growing everywhere!
We pick them and I cook them and eat them with my family. They are nice and sweet!
