Floral Folklore: The Forgotten Tales Behind Nature's Most Enchanting Plants
De (autor): Alison Davies
Discover the fascinating folklore behind more than 40 of nature's most intriguing plants and learn how you can benefit from their timeless wisdom in everyday life. Why do buttercups glow when held beneath your chin? Which blooms are sometimes called fairy phones? Why are foxgloves sometimes ominously referred to as 'Deadman's Bellows'? And what is the true meaning of a rose? Humans have given meanings and stories to plants and flowers for thousands of years, whether they're myths about Ancient Greek Gods who pecked out the eyes of anyone who dared move the sacred but thorny Peony plant, or 19th-century superstitions of how flowers could foreshadow love, life or death. After reading this book, you'll never look at a bunch of flowers the same way again! With details on the origins of the folklore behind each plant, and a beautiful ritual to help you better connect with the teaching each plant has to offer, this is the perfect gift for foragers, gardeners, and budding horticulturists looking to develop their knowledge of plants beyond the exterior. From the old wives' tale that sage thrives in the garden of a woman who rules her household (and husband!) firmly, to poppies growing in places where blood has been shed, learn the meanings and stories behind:
- Bay
- Mint
- Basil
- Lotus
- Tulips
- Orchids
- Sunflowers
- Lily of the Valley
- Nightshade
- Mulberry
- Hyacinth
- Valerian
- Parsley
- Daffodil
