This plant is the dragon plant of plants! I make either a poultice or a salve. You can even feel the initial 'knitting' when applied to sprained ankles to chapped lips. thanks for writing about this amazing plant. I really enjoyed your tribute.

I came across your work today and I am feeling SO GRATEFUL! Thank you for all the time and effort you’ve put into what is clearly a publication full of little treasures I get to experience again and again as I encounter the plants in the wild!

I like the way the flowers grow in a spiral. This shape is called 'schicht' in Dutch. A word I will never forget.

Wat leuk, dat wist ik niet, dankjewel. Voor mij een nieuw woord, ik zal het nu ook niet meer vergeten!
