Here is something I have never seen before! I love Doug and Stacy, but this is new to me! I was impressed with the number of uses of this flower!

I love watching those Hebrews! I have learned from them and have enjoyed watching them for a while now!

They are Impressive! I have learned a lot from them too! Their videos are never boring. :)

howdy this fine Sunday @smithlabs! never heard of this thing, this is a new plant here in this country no? and those Baker Seed guys sell it and you're going to raise it?
something useful for a change?

You know how hard I try, to never be useful, LOL! It is a Food, an herbal, and a tea rolled into one, that Baker brought in from SE Asia. :)

ok sir smithlabs but are you going to grow it, brew it, tincture it and eat it? I forget what it's good for.

It's best use is to confuse Texans! All of those, but not at the same time, LOL!

that's just mean smithlabs. now you're acting like a big bully and it hurts my little feelins. lol!

You caught me, LOL! It is useful for all of those things, depending on how you prepare it. Every one has their preferred way to prepare herbals; I tincture Comfrey, but some people do a tea infusion.... :)

smithlabs! the tea infusion sounds simpler, is it? just put the dry leaves in?

Much simpler to do an infusion, but it is a lot weaker. Those people drink it, I put it on the outside.

I wonder if this could be used to measure Ph? That would be helpful if we did not need litmus paper. :)
