Dave, the former though too, right – doctrine of signatures? Nice color on that last one. I’ve only ever seen the white ones. Reply
Thanks, Karen. the former though too, right – doctrine of signatures? Yeah, I guess so. I don’t see much resemblance myself, but then I admit I haven’t seen too many human livers. Reply
But all human living, the waggish might note, is done by human livers. But I defer to Pica on this one. Reply
…such delicate blossoms, with strength, to show up so early!
Oh, Dave, what a surprise and what a delight! Thank you.
Hepatica for being liver-lobe shaped, or used to treat liver ailments?
Anne – You bet.
Beth – You’re welcome!
Zhoen – The latter.
The flowers speak eloquently.
