Here is another Anenome from today. I read a brief article just now on the medicinal powers of windflowers aka Anenomes. The juice of this flower have been used as far back as ancient Greece. Anemonin which is a chemical found in these flowers is a powerful antimicrobial and expectorant. It is sold as a tincture under it's botanical name pulsatilla.
I thought this info was great. Such a pretty flower that will cure what ever ails you!! And if you are not sick..it makes you feel better by just looking at it.
