Healing Colours

[@crystalmasters8582]

Treating your videos as a daily class. Filling a notebook day by day. Thankful you showed up in my algorithm I suppose it can do some good things ;) Your flow is how I naturally operate, I’ve needed a mentor that is like minded, I appreciate your wisdom, your place on this path ahead of mine. As you lay down the pathway I’m making way just behind you 💜🙏🏼

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Wonderful! xx

[@enquery]

I always feel guilty also when taking the lavender when the bees are so busy on the flowers. Blessings, Terri.✨💗✨

[@brigidbac1438]

I have a small property in Central Portugal. Passion Fruit grows well there. The famous mousse is always requested at restaurants.

[@anyascelticcreations]

I love that you left the lavender for the bees that day. 💖

[@jeanneamato8278]

If anyone needs soothing all they need to do is watch your channel.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you Jeanne, I appreciate that.

[@sonjaveda9832]

I love your garden. Watching your videos soothes my soul. Thankyou

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

So glad to hear that Sonja!

I am going to find and plant some California poppy. This is the third time someone has mentioned it in the last week.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Go for it!

[@caroleyre9144]

We love our Californian Poppies and Lavender .S England beautiful much gratitude for all your wonderful Knowledge Wisdom Terri. Many Blessings ❤️🌻☘️

[@rosa-f4865]

It's 4am in England and I wouldn't be awake at this time normally but my baby (cat) Piper has kidney failure and with the heat today she really hasn't been well so I came to bed earlier and then awoke about 2am and have given her some cooked chicken and fresh water and sat with her while she fell asleep . So I wouldn't normally put my phone on either but there you are talking about sleep and stress relief plants and thank you just what I needed . I love lavender and have 4 large plants in my garden it's so lovely when you brush past them and it makes the bees so happy Blessing to you xx

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Oh Rosa - so sorry to hear about Piper. It is very stressful when a beloved pet is ill. I love brushing past the Lavender for the release of the scent. Have one to plant outside today. Blessings to you and Piper. x

[@danutashayler34]

You have wild bees and they are chubby and round and so furry and their colours are gorgeous; they are perfect company today in the poly tunnel. Honey bees are more of what we see here; I do appreciate them though. The wooden baskets in the tunnel are so very cool!!!! Looking at all this colour display helps the feeling of a hope with a positive first step. Many thanks

[@skyemcquire1456]

Thank you. My garden is full of Californian poppies, they are very hardy and stay until the first frosts. My lavender is just about to flower too. Didn’t know about about the properties of Passion flower so thank you 💚☘️💚

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You're welcome!

[@marilynroberts6644]

I love seeing your poly tunnel. We can't have them in the severe desert sun where I am. You are so right when you say even the colors of our gardens can be healing. Yours certainly is. Many thanks for allowing us to share your green life.💜🌱🐾

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you Marilyn. I do believe colours can be healing - each colour has a healing vibration which has been proved by modern science, (if I am remembering my physics class right).

[@kyliemartin8524]

Oh. I just love you two. ❤

[@willowgrove631]

Your poly tunnel is such a wonderful environment for all these beautiful healing herbs, and I imagine you enjoy it very much as a little oasis in the winter! 🌻

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Willow Grove - you are right, it keeps going all year.

[@FearlessNimue]

Truly enjoy how you open most videos with your adorable furbaby doggie! 🐕

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks Fearless Bird!

[@liamvnbw]

If you want to attract bees, I highly recommend planting loads of oregano. I have a bunch in the garden and it’s flowers are completely covered in bees!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Hi Liam - you are right. My Oregano is in flower at this moment.

[@maryanneanderson8902]

Thank you Teri. I have been trying to grow the passion vine thinking it were the fruits that was needed. In our fridgid winters I have not much success overwintering them inside (but I’ll keep trying) It was so wonderful to learn I can use the leaves and blossoms as well. Thank you. I am grateful fir your knowledge and kindness to share. Many blessings 🌱❤️💫❣️❣️❣️

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you Maryanne. I think it is important to share information that can help others. I love it when I come across things. Blessings to you too and I hope your weather is warming up!

[@marleneclough3173]

They become enormous vines but not long lived

[@RavenStealstheNight]

Your garden is looking very lush. And your pups are adorable. Thanks so much for ideas and tips on anti-anxiety flora. The passion flower is really pretty.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks. New pup is very sweet and they are getting on so well.

[@deborahphillips8342]

We are able to grow Passiflora (Passion Fruit) here in North Carolina as a perennial without a poly tunnel.

[@dwaynecuster]

Wonderful! I love the bees and the lavender. I have small carpenter bees pollinating the arugula that I've let go to flower and there are finches eating small bits of beet leaves. I am so glad nature is able to find food at my apartment garden. We have lots of California poppies in Oregon and all along the west coast of the US. Thank you Terri and your awesome cameraman. =)

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

That just shows what you can do - you don't need to live in the country. I would love to see your apartment garden!

Passion flowers (or Maypops) grow wild near here. One of my fav flowers!! Has anyone heard of making Maypop Dolls? My Grandmama used to make them buy has lost alot of her memory and can't remember details about how they mad them.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I've heard about these. Just go ahead and try making one yourself and see what you come up with!

[@Cronezonetarot]

Terri, what a lovely treat for a Saturday morning. I have these plants except for the St. John's Wort which I'm on a guest for. I have several passiflora plants which over winter here in South East England. To be honest though, I only routinely use the lavender and lemon balm. Now I've seen your video I shall give the Passiflora and Californian poppy a whirl. Thank you for being an inspiration. Looking forward to some more classes from you on endemy.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Hi Lyn, glad you liked the video. Thank you! Passiflora would probably survive outside here with the heat wave we are having! I love it and the Cal Poppy. Both are very helpful when I can't sleep. Glad you asked about the Udemy course as my new one is finally ready. Here is a link: www.udemy.com/course/herbal-spring-tonics-and-natural-spring-cleaning/?referralCode=E8BF95C66F68D5DBC8B7 Blessings!

Lovely new puppy, i have new fur baby after loosing two recently. Dog god

[@wendymcfarlane9068]

Wonderful Terri thank you. This is so apt for now isn't it. Such worrying stressful times. I'm cultivating my own tiny therapy garden, mostly in pots but I have use of a small greenhouse too for now. Can I ask two things? Which carrier oil is best for these infusions and can you include Lemon Verbena with this collection of herbs? It's my favourite one as I love the strong lemon smell, mixed in with lemon balm.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I generally use extra virgin olive oil for my infusions - mainly because I make soap with most of the infusions. I love Lemon Verbena as well for its smell so I would certainly add it to infusions or tea. Great idea making a therapy garden - it's what women always did in the past.

[@beverley1539]

Hello from Ontario Canada Thankyou for sharing Lavender is my favourite flower for not only all that you mentioned. I too have used as yourself. However the most important reason for the love of lavender is the scent memories of my beloved gran! Have you ever tried lavender honey?so yummy! Blessings to you and yours.🐝

I’ve just bought some St John’s wort wild flower seed . Do you know Terri if the cultivated variety has the same properties…there’s loads of that planted in shrubbery near where I live

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

St. John's Wort is a Hypericum with the medicinal one called Hypericum perforata. There are several other STJW plants and the shrubby on is not medicinal, it's much larger as well.

[@BeFree-BeFrugal]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thank you 🙏 appreciated, I thought you’d know 😀

[@johndayan7126]

Our children are having sleep problems. Is what appears here as "Patty Flora" the same as "Passion Flower"? I couldn't find patty flora but this looks like passion flower, which grows in our area of the Southeastern U.S. Thank you for any help you can provide. Peace be with you friend.

[@davidfahey5778]

How do you use the California Poppy…as a tea? Salve? Tincture? Sorry if this is a foolish question, I’m a beginner…

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You can dry for tea or make a fresh tincture. No question is foolish - the foolish do not question!

[@catherinepatterson4720]

I came across your KZbin channel via the KZbin channel Bealtaine Cottage. I am so happy I did. The knowledge you’ve shared today is wonderfully helpful. You are so lucky to own a patch of Mother earth to grow things and stay connected with nature. This has been my dream, but for some reason it just hasn’t yet occurred (maybe I am blocked or self sabotaging my dream). Any suggestions for releasing blocks? Anyway, I look forward to catching up on past videos and watching the videos to come : ) Thank you 🌻🌸🌼🌺💐

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Catherine, thank you for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it. All I can suggest is, believe deep down that you really deserve a piece of land. Spend some intentional time visualising yourself walking your land, smelling the earth, the air and the plants. Hear the bees and the breeze. Feel the sun on your skin. Visualisation along with "feeling" physical sensations are reputed to help. xx

[@catherinepatterson4720]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thank you kindly for your caring reply and your tip on how I can create my dream. I have noted this, and will ensure I follow through. Hopefully, some day, I can message you and tell you I own a patch of ground, growing vegetables, herbs, flowers, fruit trees etc. Thank you for being an inspiration (as does Bealtaine Cottage) 🌻🌸🌼🌺💐

[@Cronezonetarot]

Terri, I've heard that with pass flora caerulea, the leaves must be boiled. Do you agree and if so, how long for? Would ordinary infusion be enough? Also could you advise on amount?

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Dear Lyn, like many foods that we eat, such as linseed, lima beans, cherries, peaches and many more, my Passiflora contains glycosides that generate cyanide when the leaves are broken. It is a protective response by the plant to prevent it being eaten. Boiling the leaves, or preparing them in boiling water will certainly reduce the cyanide content. I would not recommend it be taken for too long though. Thanks for the question. Personally, I would infuse in boiling water for 20 mins using about 1 tsp of herb.

[@joannahart1604]

Such a magical garden ❤️ ok so I’ve been looking around on your website for herbal courses in which I’ve found are any online with you or are they all in Ireland with you ? I do have some knowledge on herbs...have been using them for some years now ! In saying this by watching your KZbin post I’m learning soooo much more and truly enjoying them all 😊 would love to join one of your groups .

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Hi Jo, thank you so much, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. I do courses from home, here in Ireland and I have two courses on Udemy. They are herbal medicine courses. I also do an online Goddess/Wise Woman training on line. All details are on the website.

[@laurieshatney9279]

I think I have St. Johns Wart growing around my property. The plant I have is very invasive and spreads like crazy. Would you say it is St. Johns Wart? I have looked it up and it looks like it, but if it isn't, I don't want to make something out of it and then get ill. Thank you

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Treat yourself to a good wild flower book so that you can identify plants. After a while it will come naturally. If it is St John's Wort, Hypericum perforata, it will leave a reddish stain on the fingers when you rub the flowers or buds

[@adrianatanasescu122]

Csn you please tell me what kind of pil you use to infuse the plants? Thank you very much

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I just use olive oil - organic if I have it. You can also use Sweet Almond, Sunflower, choose an oil that suits the end product. If I was making a face product I would use Sunflower or SA, but for the body or for a medicinal salve I always use Olive oil.

[@adrianatanasescu122]
