frankincense mostly just good smells from sap when rubbed, burned or made into oil. companion plant myrrh, sap good smell too for oils or burning, but is good antiseptic, make into toothpaste, mouthwash, or alcohol tincture for wounds, stops ingrown toenail infections and such. germination of frank is very low, like 3 percent sometimes so cuttings best way to get started, can't grow outside of really hot dry regions, requires good drainage like cactus, rare plant so is interesting, myrrh more useful, but thorns :(
