RE: Celebrating Wild Medicine Ep. 4 - The Blessed Thistle
You’ve been visited by @nateonsteemit on behalf of Natural Medicine!
The thistle: more medicine that we kill simply for being in our yard! Glad I haven't hacked ours down. They're getting quite tall now. While ours aren't this type with the thorns under the flowers, I'm sure they're related. I'll look ours to make sure they're not toxic. If they're safe, they're embraced! Thanks for this post! Resteemed :)
We are also running our fortnightly competition for steem rewards, where you can explore a plant medicine. This fortnight's plants are mullein, ginseng and alder... Plus a wild card where you can choose your own!

Very true! I know many people who despise the thistle despite their amazing qualities. It's a shame really. That thistle in your yard could very possibly be the milk thistle. This thistle has purple/pink flowers and grows quite tall. They also have many health benefits! Thank you for reading and resteeming! About this competition, what do we do? Do we write up a post exploring their medicinal benefits? It sounds cool!
Yeah! It's a contest that's right up your alley. Here's this fortnight's edition:
