💮 Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) 💮

👩🏻‍🏫 How well do you really know blackthorn?

🌳 A member of the Rosaceae family, blackthorn has dark brown bark and as the second part of its Latin name implies (spinosa), it is covered in many thorns or 'spines'.

🤓 The tree blossoms in early spring, before producing any leaves. This is a good way to differentiate it from other trees with similar flowers, e.g. Hawthorn (Crataegus spp.).

💮 It has delicate white five-petal flowers, with many anthers and stamens. If you pick a flower and suck its nectar, it has the loveliest almondy taste. I recommend trying it!

🫐 If the flowers are left for pollination, in the autumn and winter the tree will produce a bountiful crop of seeded fruits (drupes), i.e. sloes. Home-made sloe gin, anyone? 😉

🧚 The tree is steeped in interesting folklore. For example, in Celtic mythology, the blackthorn was seen as a sacred tree of protection.

😖💩 Medicinally, blackthorn is incredibly toning (astringent) and anti-spasmodic. Thus, the bark and leaves have been used to create infusions and tinctures to alleviate diarrhea and stomach cramps.

🤒🤧 Sloes have also been used as a mouth rinse for mild sore throats. Some have used the flowers in herbal teas and syrups to help with coughs and colds.

🤓 If you're interested in learning more about wild food, foraging and herbal medicine, I have a Winter Remedies & Fire Cider Workshop at the coming up on Saturday 18th October. For more information, check out the event link in my bio. 🔗

👩🏻‍🔬 See you there for tea drinking and potion making. 🌿✨

I'm looking forward to frolicking in the woods; foraging for berries and mushrooms; and refilling my cup before an exciting month full of herbal events! (This is the part where you visit the website and check out all of my wonderful offerings!) 😉

I will be returning to clinic on Monday the 29th of September. I will endeavour to respond to all emails and messages swiftly upon my return.

Until then, take care.
