Guest guest Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 ROSE PETAL HONEY! Yes folks, today’s herbal adventure brings us to Tolt-Mc Park in Carnation as we all go and pick Rose Petals. WHY? TO make one of my FAVORITE herbal creations… Rose Petal Honey 1. Pick a bunch of Rose Petals. Wild rose, domesticated, rugosa… any fragrant rose will do. 2. Fill any size jar with the petals. Make it a light pack. Not to few, but not in their really tight either. 3. Pour honey in to the jar until it is full. 4. Cap the jar. 5. Turn the jar over every time you pass by it for a few days. 6. After a few days, open up and taste! It will get better with time, but it is certainly ready after just a few days to a week. 7. Spread on scones, toast or anything you want a delicious spread on. YUM! Hey, if you are going to take herbal medicine, it might as well taste good, right?Rose honey is known to help sooth sore throats, and wet rose petals can be placed on cuts and sores. As the petals dry they will form a sort of natural bandage. For sore eyes, wash with juice made by soaking flowers in hot water. Stems and branches can be used to ease colds, fever, stomach trouble, weak blood, & menstrual pains. Burn the thorns off, break up the twigs & boil them. To induce vomiting, soak the bark in hot water until the solution is very strong. Suzi What is a weed?
