A HERBALIST'S VIEW
Caroline Wheeler, a member of the College
of Practitioners of Phytotherapy (Herbal Medicine),
has contributed a regular article for White
Admiral since issue 52. These 22 articles have
each concentrated on one particular plant,
usually one of our native wild flowers, giving
her view, as a herbalist, of its properties.
More often than not this includes some unusual
facts that you might not find in your usual
wild flower books.
On this page you will find a quick way of accessing
each of Caroline's articles as links to each
of them are arranged below in alphabetical
order, with some common names in smaller print.
