Feverfew

I have only just identified this in my garden :oops:

Can it be fed to rabbits?

Will it cure a headache? :)

We have loads of this. If you let it flower and seed, you'll also have loads next year :)

I've never fed it and have found it on more than one site as unsafe. I think it has a horrid smell and don't think I would want to eat it.

No idea whether it will cure a headache. I think some people think it will.
 
Love it! 'Oh Happy One'! I'm going to try to live up to that. :lol:

Rudyard Kipling, The Elephant's Child. I used to read it to Year 7, to the horror of my colleagues. I don't think I have a copy at home, but it might be online... oh, they were 'fever trees'... "all set about with fever-trees"...


Vachellia xanthophloea - the typical big African tree with very spread out branches. Entirely different from herb feverfew for migraine! Never let me treat you with herbal remedies. One of my great-grandmas was a wise-woman, but I don't seem to have inherited the necessary skills!

I found it but haven't read it all yet :)

Oh, and you never know, there may well come a time when I will beg to be treated by you with herbal remedies ;) :lol:
