Several plants can be found in Bolivia. Such as an ichu (a coarse bunchgras), tola (tough wind resistant shrub), yareta (moss like cushion used for making fuel), totora, quishuara and khenatrees, Eucalyptus and pine trees have been found around the shores of Lake Titicaca. Some types of tress are aliso (a shrublike tree), laurel, cedar, tarco (a shade tree producing masses of yellow-white flowers), and saúco (which has fruit used to make medicine). The cinchona, or quina tree, from which quinine is made, and the coca shrub, the source of cocaine, are also indigenous there. (McFarren, Peter J. "Climate." Encyclopedia Britannica Online.
