🌸 Nature's Healer: Echinacea 🌸 Happy Bank Holiday! Our herb garden is blooming at this time of year. The Echinacea flowers arrived last week. Here is a close-up of this beautiful and important herb in our materia medica.

Echinacea purpurea is a different variety from Echinacea angustifolia, which is more commonly used. We prefer purpurea for use in our herbal clinic and for its ease of growth in our herb gardens in Ireland #Echinacea #EchinaceaPurpurea #HerbalMedicine #CoreCollege #HerbGarden

Cayenne is one of the most powerfully stimulating herbs in our Materia Medica. Its application goes beyond the culinary. Cayenne supports circulation. Always check with your health care practitioner before use. #Herbalmedicine #Herbs #Alternativemedicine #NaturalHealing #cayenne
