elephant head flower tea

7 grams in a 3.5" x 5.5" brown Kraft bag

Pedicularis groenlandica

The Plant Story: Pedicularis is also known as betony, elephant head flower, or lousewort. I prefer to call it the purple elephants, the dwellers of pristine alpine meadows by gushing creeks if you want to be specific. This past summer my kin with this herb had blossomed in ways I cannot imagine. On a family trip to the high mountains, my mother and I got to gush over this purple elephant head flower. On a backpacking trip with my girls, we got to swoon and bond by these elephants dancing all around us. These are the protectors of all things delicate yet hard-ass in the high country of the Rocky Mountains (also found in high elevations of Asia, Europe and North America)

I am so so so so blessed to be able to share this medicine with you all ✨
