I couldn't help but post this picture. Its echinacea from my garden last year. A truly beautiful plant with amazing health benefits. The root is used in a tea or a tincture to stimulate the immune system. I have found it most beneficial at the first onset of a cold/flu or other infection. It also can be used topically for skin infections like boils or infected cuts, or as a mouthwash for gingivitis or infections in the throat. It's one of my favorites!
