It's Iris Time Again. Batik Irises. My batik irises usually have more purple than white, but I really like this unusual one as well. The roots of the iris plant have been used medicinally to treat skin infections, syphilis, stomach problems and dropsy. Today the roots are still used to purge the liver. Some alternative medicine uses include using yellow iris to treat dandruff and white iris to treat asthma and bronchitis, as well as use as a diuretic.

Virginia Blue Bells
When native bees and butterflies first venture out in the spring, they desperately need flowers that provide nectar. If you enjoy a flower that does that and changes from pink, to purple, to blue, all on the same plant, you’ll want Virginia bluebells in your garden. Mertensia virginica is edible, including the flowers. Virginia bluebells had several uses in traditional Native American medicine, including as a pulmonary aid, tuberculosis treatment, and treatment for whooping cough (Cherokee), root infusion antidote for treating poison, and root decoction to treat venereal issues (Iroquois). Native Americans believed a tonic made from this plant could help heal those who were under-the-weather.
