Plant Witch
Plant Witches delve deeper into plants than a Green Witch does. They dig into the history of plants, what they are (have been ) used for and their origin. They have a very deep connection with Mother Nature.
They study the history, traditions, and cultural associations of different plants and herbs as well as use them in rituals, potions, and spells.

Like many of the sprigs that have erupted from the base of Wicca, Plant Witches embody the over all characteristics of Wicca, but lean more toward working with and studying plants.

We grow dill and basil on our deck. You would think we would be wiser and richer.
Thanks for the article. Interesting again
Maybe your dill & basil are protecting you instead....
Could be
funny, I don't see my favorite plant listed...
That is for chillin'.
Eating horseradish certainly takes a bit courage some days. I like to use it as a binder. Smear a beef roast with horseradish to hold the seasonings also applied liberally to the outside and place it in the smoker grill to cook "low and slow".
Nettle tea is good for blood pressure and blood sugar regulation.
The smell of mint can increase productivity.
Not a big horseradish fan. I'll use peppers for my courage.
I have never heard of nettle tea. Might have to locate some.
I love mint. It is so refreshing.
I only use the horseradish as a binder for smoking. It makes a good bark on the outside and the taste is there without the hotness. I'll use simple mayo on a pork shoulder. I'm thinking of doing a pork shoulder next weekend.

I've been thinking of trying some of those oils and trying a combination of cinnamon, cedar and sandalwood for my office. I think that would be nice. Maybe switch that up in the winter to cinnamon, cedar and pine?
I have never got into the smoking of meat. But it does intrigue me (of course that means I will tell hubby he has a new hobby).
Thanks for the link - I am going to order some.
I do enjoy my oils. I use lavender and lilac in the spring & summer & move to cinnamon & peppermint for fall & winter.
Love those too. This house is the first one I've ever lived in that doesn't have lilac bushes, but we just did plant the lavender last Sunday.
Love my lilac bushes. My lavender is blooming now.
I like horseradish. If I get a fish sandwich from Wendy's or Arby's I do my own tartar sauce and dill and horseradish are the primary ingredients
My Father liked sauerkraut.
No thanks..
I like sauerkraut but I'm picky about the way it's prepared. My mom used to do a pork roast with sauerkraut. She would cook it all day in the oven smothered in sauerkraut. The kraut would get all brown, roasty, and toasty. I also like it grilled on a flat iron before it's put into a Reuben
That sounds better than what I've had. He use to just put a bunch on a hotdog...
I also like sauerkraut but am picky about the kraut. I like raw, unpasteurized kraut. I add it raw to a number of foods but also like it cooked as you describe.
I'm not a fan of tarter sauce, but it sounds intriguing.
sweet pickle relish, very little miracle whip, dill, and horseradish...all to taste or until it looks good
Sweet Grass is a great Mosquito repellent.
Hmmm. I have always used lavender. Maybe I will give the Sweet Grass a try.
I have tried growing lavender. It works fine in the spring but once summer hits here it is goodbye...
I grow & then create oils to spritz throughout the summer.
I will admit I like the smell of vanilla. Haha
So does my hubby. When he buys me scents - it is always vanilla.
I had to look up feverfew.
There were several I had to look up.
that helps with a fever, doesn't it?
And headaches, toothaches...also can be used for insects.
My Aunt use to do that to me. Here take some of this plant. Here, have some of this...
My sister doesn't let me touch her plants - she says I have a black thumb, but I can grow geraniums like crazy & same with lavender.
Very funny.
Done.
