guie' se' naro'ba' Name used for the species <Bonellia macrocarpa>, a small and abundant tree that grows in La Ventosa. It flowers during the dry season. The flowers are used to make necklaces and are aromatic but less so than the flowers of the <guie' se' nalase'> (<Bonellia nervosa>). The fruit is orange and smoother than the fruit of the <guie' se' nalase'>. The leaves, which have a pointed tip that is hard like a thorn, are wider than those of the <guie' se' nalase'>. The tip of the leaves can be used to pop blisters. Children used to use them to infect themselves with an illness carried by another child, so that they would get a fever and be offered sweet drinks and other special accommodations.
