We grow a lot of them! Mostly in pots so we can control them better.
It's the #StateFlower of #Maryland.
The #Ojibwa #Indigenous peoples used it as a #poultice for snake bites & to make an infusion for treating colds and worms in children.

Search engines and my books are failing me today. I’m trying to find out how horsetail is used to stop external bleeding. I know it can be used as a poultice, but I’m not sure how that’s made. At what point in the growing season can it be used this way? Is it ground up by itself, or is water added? In a pinch, can it be chewed up and then put on a wound? #Herbalism #Horsetail #poultice #medicine

In 1812, the Brothers #Grimm told of #Folklore's Frau #Berchta, an #Alpine #Goddess.
The 5 #Petals of the #White #Christmas #Rose (#Helleborus niger) #Bloomed #Iridescent in her tracks. Berchta means #Luminous.
Niger refers to the #Black #Roots which were used to make a #Poultice during the #BlackPlague.
Berchta visited homes #Between #Christmas & #TwelfthNight to #Bless #Good children w/ #Gold coins & #Punish the #Naughty by stuffing their #Stomach-s w/ straw.
