🌱✨ Today we’re going to talk about Impatiens Capensis, also known as Orange Jewelweed, Touch-me-not or Orange Balsam. After recently coming into contact with some Poison Ivy/Poison Oak, I’ve been looking for this gem of a plant. (Pun intended 😅)

It’s common in moist, shaded areas such as woodlands, bogs and marshes, along streams and lakes and in ditches. There are many benefits and medicinal properties to this beauty, and a couple cool little factoids.

✨ Fresh juice/sap from the stem and leaves contain this compound called balsaminones, and this beauty of a compound relieves the itch and irritation from Poison Ivy, Poison Oak and Nettles.

✨ Usually found near Poison Ivy and Poison Oak, so in case you brush up on those nasties, Jewelweed is always close by

✨It’s a POTENT anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory and is proven to help treat athletes foot, warts and corns

✨And for the cool little factoids;
You can make yellow dye from the flowers and the seed pods explode when you touch them and launch the seeds up to 4 ft away!!

So if you come into contact with Poison Ivy, Poison Oak or Nettles, find yourself some Jewelweed!! I know I’m keeping my eyes open!! 💎🌱✨

Springtime is here, and so are the flowers! But don't be fooled by those yellow blooms, they're not dandelions, they're Coltsfoot, aka Tussilago farfara, and they're here to make your day brighter!

Coltsfoot has been used in traditional medicine for various medicinal purposes, including:

🌼 Respiratory Health: Coltsfoot is known for its expectorant and cough-suppressant properties. It is often used to relieve respiratory conditions such as coughs, bronchitis, and asthma.

🌼 Anti-inflammatory: Coltsfoot has anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce inflammation in the body.

🌼 Antioxidant: Coltsfoot contains antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.

🌼 Digestive Health: Coltsfoot is believed to have digestive benefits and can help alleviate digestive issues such as indigestion and bloating.

🌼 Skin Health: Coltsfoot has been used topically to treat skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
