Jewelweed is amazing for poison ivy, which is really interesting when you consider that they often grow together.<br /><br />LisaLA Muranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00827994015402999638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-49700567911021107402019-04-11T13:07:18.676-04:002019-04-11T13:07:18.676-04:00Jewelweed is the only thing that cures my poison, ...Jewelweed is the only thing that cures my poison, which I manage to get often. I fill a pot with leaves leaves from the plant then cover with water and bring to a boil then cool. Boil and cool 3 times. Put in a spray bottle and use literally on your poison ivy rash.

It's a great remedy for poison ivy and around here it's often growing right beside poison ivy. That makes it very tricky to harvest! Hope that helps!<br /><br />~LLA Muranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00827994015402999638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-21076552862885231102017-01-23T03:14:35.805-05:002017-01-23T03:14:35.805-05:00I did not know about red clover helping against th...I did not know about red clover helping against the symptoms of the menopause but being a lady of a certain age I will try this once spring arrives. I am also off to look up Jewelweed as it is not a plant name I know - maybe it doesn't grow in France where I live or maybe it goes by another name. Do you happen to know it's Latin name? #WasteLessWednesdayA Green and Rosie Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02501989987736281707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-86907905933858541782017-01-20T13:21:05.644-05:002017-01-20T13:21:05.644-05:00I forage for herbs where I live, too.

I wish there were more hands-on plant identification classes near by. It's a little limiting to have to rely mostly on herbs you grow yourself or purchase, when there are so many wild plants!
