I've been looking for some echinacea seeds (probably spelt that wrong) for ages! Can I please buy some from you. Maybe you husband can drop to the van next time?

]]> Comment on Echinacea: How to grow and use this powerful antibiotic and immune-stimulant by loveplantlife http://loveplantlife.com/plants/echinacea-how-to-grow-and-use-this-powerful-antibiotic-and-immune-stimulant#comment-233 loveplantlife Sun, 19 Feb 2012 00:46:08 +0000 http://loveplantlife.com/?p=3110#comment-233 Thanks Catherine! It's interesting that sugar seems to be the new salt or new fat - all of it is labelled as bad and should be cut out of the diet. Unfortunately, we still haven't learnt that nature is very complex and our overly simplistic diet trends harm our health. I'm of the opinion that life on one level or another is all about sugar - monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, chocolate ;) Would have loved to be at the talk. Exactly my idea of a good time. Will have to do some catch up reading. Thanks Catherine!

It's so good to see glycoproteins and polysacchrides listed as healing components. I've been talking about them and their importance because of taking Ambrotose and working with Mannatech. Aloe vera is probably my favourite healing plant. I should have invited you to the talk Thursday, tomorrow night at the Intercontinental Hotel at 7:30. Dr Boyd will be talking about the new scientific studies being done on the efficacy of healing compounds made from plants. It's the stabilization of the healing compounds in the plants that is always the tricky bit. Growing you own will always be the best but when you have to take a plant in a capsule it's good to know who you can trust. Larch tree bark is another interesting healing compound used by the Native Americans. Not sure how long it takes to grow a larch tree. Great posting, as always.

The 2 metre flower stalks went all higgeldy piggeldy in the wind, to put it mildly. But the flowers are so pretty that a well framed shot like this was a necessity. I do so like valerian and it is such a wonderful companion for my beans :) My valerian may have been deceiving. The 2 metre flower stalks went all higgeldy piggeldy in the wind, to put it mildly.

Loving that Valerian pic. It never looks that neat and tidy for me. Maybe it's time to try again! Wee obsessions are one of the gardener’s greatest tools. Loving that Valerian pic.

But you too can have this rather easily. It takes very little space to grow these herbs, even though most of them can get out of control if you let them :) Thank you.
