Echinacea purpurea was introduced to England from Virginia in the late 17th century. In 1699, Oxford Physic Garden’s Jacob Bobart called it Dracunculus virginianus, “little dragon of Virginia” – perhaps inspired by its traditional use for snakebite or its spiked, flame-like cone. 3.9K views · 412 likes · 87 reposts · 14 replies Open on X →
“And in the feathery aster bees on wing Seize and set free the honied flowers, Till thousand stars leap with their visiting: While ever across the path lazily flit, Unpiloted in the sun, The dreamy butterflies… “ – from ‘The Garden in September’ by Robert Bridges (1844-1930). ht 4.8K views · 561 likes · 135 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →

The botanical illustrations of Vine and Blackberry in my collage are by Maurice Pillard Verneuil, from ‘La Plante et ses Applications ornementales, Deuxième série’ (1896), a beautiful collection of plants illustrated for their decorative and ornamental possibilities. 513 views · 38 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
The association of Muin with the Vine is much older than the modern Tree Calendar. Medieval Irish scholars linked the Ogham letter Muin with the vine, though its meaning is uncertain. This association was therefore not invented when the modern calendar was created in the 1940s. h 746 views · 57 likes · 7 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
In the modern Celtic Ogham Tree Calendar, Vine (sometimes interpreted as Bramble) rules Muin, the 10th month of the calendar, from 2nd–29th September. Both plants are laden with ripening fruit at this time of year making them fitting symbols of autumn abundance. #FolkloreThursday 5.1K views · 515 likes · 117 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →

The illustrations I used in my collage are a botanical illustration of morning glories by the French artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759–1840), and a Japanese woodblock print of morning glories by Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849). 571 views · 40 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
The morning glory, Ipomoea tricolor, is the second birth flower of September. In old England it was known as “life of man” for its flowers are in bud in the morning, open by noon and wither by evening. In the Victorian language of flowers it is an emblem of affection. #folklore h 7.8K views · 799 likes · 222 reposts · 34 replies Open on X →
In 2006 a keen crocheter wrote of her Irish mum’s belief that a little bit of your soul is left in everything you make. Hence you should aways crochet in a small hidden mistake so your little bit of soul isn’t trapped but has an avenue to escape #MythologyMonday #FolkloreSunday 4.7K views · 213 likes · 49 reposts · 7 replies Open on X →
