Description

The listing, Foxglove flower seeds (50) + has ended.

The healing powers, real and supposed, of the tall plant with distinctive white or purple flowers (genus digitalis) have been known since classical times. Poisonous if swallowed, it is applied externally for sprains, bruises, and bone ailments. In Gaelic and Welsh traditions its powers are thought to flow from the realm of the fairy; its name means literally ‘fairy fingers’ [méirini púca] or ‘fairy thimble’ [méaracán sídhe] in Irish and ‘banshee herb’ in Scottish Gaelic [lus-nam-ban-s'th; cf. Irish lus na mban sídhe]. Its prestige in Ireland is shown in the Hiberno-English word for foxglove, lusmore [Irish lus mór, great herb]. Manx sleggan; Welsh bysedd y cw^n [dog finger]; Cornish mannek lowarn [foxglove]; Breton bruluenn.
