Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 oh what a blessing that would be~ also shoot me some jewelwed seeds if you have any of those. Mine did great for about 5 weeks, then just keeled over and died, Way to much rain and since I had planted it in the end of the herb garden the water just pooled around it~ danggit~so I'll have to remove some stones this year~ Sindy -------------- Original message -------------- " paula coon " <paulacoon Sindy, remind me this summer about this thread.

Steep for 10 min. then strain. drink 2or 3 cups of warm tea daily. WOUND DRESSING To facilitate healing of skin wounds, soak a compression calendula tea and apply to affected area. GARGLE Use tea as a gargle or rinse to relieve inflammations in the mouth or throat. Gargle w/warm tea several times a day. CALENDULA OINTMENT Infuse about a ½ cup dried powered calendula flowers into 1 cup olive oil and soak for 14 days; strain well and refrigerate. if you would prefer a salve instead, add 1oz. beeswax to ½-3/4 cup oil and ½ cup calendula flowers. This ointment helps in the healing of chapped skin andcold sores. VARICOSE VIENS Gently apply to affected areas twice daily. Do not rub or massage just gently spread thin layer over affected areas! The ointment promotes blood circulation and helps speed healing. BED SORES Gently rub ointment into the sores several times a day, if necessary cover w/gauze or bandages. NAIL INFECTIONS The ointments anti-inflammatory and germ killing actions are useful for infections in the nail bed. apply directly to the affected area several times a day.
