Product Details
My large-scale 100-herb print! In honor of my lifelong love of plants AND humanity's fascination with them, I've gathered antique engravings of 100 of the best-known healing herbs and plants into a single HUGE 24x36 poster, perfect for decor AND reference. You can view this poster as an HERBAL REFERENCE: Herbalists have known for thousands of years that the world is full of helpful, healing plants. Modern herbalists have inherited the belief that for every poisonous or harmful plant in the world, Nature provides the cure. In fact, herbal knowledge has always held a pride of place in the lore of healers, shamans, and health practitioners. You can also view this poster as a guide to your own specimen collection, called an HERBARIUM. People + Plants have always lived side-by-side, and collecting specimens for scientific knowledge as well as pleasure has occupied Europeans since the middle ages. In fact, early American education included required courses in collecting and identifying plants and flowers. The American poet Emily Dickinson wrote in a letter to her school friend in 1845: "Have you made an herbarium yet? I hope you will if you have not, it would be such a treasure to you." Any time YOU spend researching and collecting herbs, plants, and flowers will be a treasure to you as well. DETAILS: - Your poster is printed custom just for you, and is a HUGE 24x36 inch horizontal size, perfect for framing or hanging from clips or rails - Printed heavyweight semi-gloss card stock - this is a seriously substantial, high-quality poster - Shipped ROLLED in a sturdy mailing tube - FREE shipping to the U.S. (yep!) NOTE: I've thoroughly researched the identification of each plant to the best of my ability, BUT I make no guarantee as to the efficacy or effects of the plants themselves. THIS POSTER IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE. Consider it an amazing jumping-off point for research, and a catalog for collections you'll make of amazing medicinal plants!
