Silene capensis is regarded by local shamans as a type of "Ubulawu" or medicinal root that they call "Undlela Ziimhlophe", which translates literally as "White paths" or "White ways". Its root is traditionally used to induce vivid (and according to the Xhosa, prophetic) lucid dreaming. The plant exerts only minimal alterations in waking consciousness, yet the effects upon the dream state can be profound. 

Other names: Silene capensis, Silene undulata, African Dream Root, Undlela Ziimphlophe (Xhosa)
