Botany

Whew, I'm half way through CSHS! I can't believe how fast it's going. Last week we had "finals" (as much as hippie herbalists do finals). One of our projects was to press/sketch/photograph 10 flowering plants, and write about them. I won't bore you with what I wrote, but the plants themselves sure are beautiful.

White Sage
Valerian

Spanish Lavendar


Rose Campion

Milk Thistle

Grindelia/Gumweed

Feverfew

Clary Sage

Calendula

Artichoke
