I have moved and now have nature on my doorstep. Cycling to the post office meant a 16 km ride there and back. There was easy but back less so, as it was uphill. But... the scenery and the peace I get from being here is priceless. So what if the ride was hard, there's no pressure. Need to do more to build up my fitness. The highlight was seeing buzzards and #tussilago or #coltsfoot. Spring is here 🤩

@holundra @plants One should probably be very careful not to ingest any parts of the #comfrey plant, as it contains #hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids, and only use it topically:
Symphytum, Phytochemistry, folk medicine, and toxicity:

This is Coltsfoot - Tussilago farfara. It is one of my favourite herbs, and it just got useful. Coronavirus has been getting a lot of attention - it is dangerous because it fills the lungs with mucus. Tussilago is useful because it eases coughs at the same time as thinning mucus down and encourages its expulsion from the lungs.
If you have any health concerns, please ring me on 01286 865883 / 07989325028 or message me.
