  • In this quick little video I'm gana jabber all about Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) & tell you why she's for so much more than hormonal support!

    Remember you are 💯 smart enough to do this too!

    Hi, loved this video. I'm a master dietitian who got EI/MCS doing medical research. None of the western wonder drugs work on me. I should have been born in 1850. So my hubby and I started taking herbalism classes. I'm doing my own tinctures now and trying to grow pink evening primrose for food and medicine. Can you do more videos on it? Blessings from Texas USA the friendly state ❤

    New subscriber here from your lilac tincture video. I really like how you end the videos - telling folks that they CAN do this - that they're smart enough to. So much of what holds us back is this built in hierarchy we are taught in American culture that tells us someone smarter than us is who does certain things when in reality we're all capable, especially now when information flows like a river. God bless you, I appreciate you!

    I just found a few on the side of the road . I use to have her in my garden but I moved from Wyo back to Washington so I got excited to see that she grows here too. I will get watching for the seed pods and gett'r back in my new garden. I like going out in the evening and watching the blooms pop open ,and she smells So nice 💛
    Important to note for anyone growing her , she's a biannual 😉

    We are taking care of our neighbors animals this week...right behind her chicken coup I saw a yellow flower. Thought I'd scoot on over to this beauty and scan on picture this app. EVENING Primrose 😱 on the edge of their woods. I plan to ask if she minds I partake and make a tincture for us. I know she will say yes, but will ask for sure. Pumped! My 1st encounter with evening Primrose. Hubby said, "remember, April just made a video about her" lol. He is loving your channel as much as me. Learning so much. Keep em coming (videos) Thank you again👐💃♥️😘

I’ve looked but I didn’t see it do you have a video on showing how to infuse garlic into olive oil? I understand that if it’s not done right that it can be a bad thing for you to use. Thanks again.

  • @kleineroteHex
    @kleineroteHex 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    this plant appeared in my garden one year - showed up as a rosette and I had no clue what it was. As I usually do I let things grow to find out what it is. I got this tall plant with these gorgeous yellow flowers. Most amazing to watch at dusk when one opens! In the morning there is usually a whole sea of yellow and then they wither away, but new ones come by dusk, yeah! So when do I harvest flowers, in the morning? Or just cut up a whole stem, leaves, flowers, buds and all? I see a new tincture brewing :)

    She cascades down the rocks alongside the cliffs of our highways here in Missouri. I got permission to cut off some clippings and am propagating several in the same rocky soil she was growing in. I can hardly wait to incorporate her into my micro meadow.

    Thank you so much! I've really been wanting you to do a video on evening primrose for over a year now. sShe has been growing all around me for the past 2 years and everything that you mentioned that she is good for is what my body needs help with. I had a deep feeling she was trying to get my attention but I really couldn't find much information on her.
    I was wondering if you have worked with ghost pipes yet? Those are all around me this year and I was wondering If you had any information about her that you could share?

    Its really, "too bad & quite SAD.." that, the person who gave you a "thumbs down"..
    Does NOT- "comprehend" the FACT, that "THEY"- have some, VERY, very deep- "inner-work", to "go and DO"!
    ...thats "why?", I said- above "its too bad and quite sad" that THIS, "human"-
    WONT, EVER- "see" the "faults/flaws" of their, OWN "self"..
    ..they WILL, "be BACK!" to "Earth" to "repeat" their OWN, "lessons".. they OBVIOUSLY, ARE NOT- "learning", NOW!
    They'll "be BACK".. they'll "see".

For tea would i harvest, hang and dry, using the leaves and flowers or just the leaves? Thank you so much, April, for all that you do with your videos and sharing your knowledge!
