Geranium

With today's MM subtheme being flower power, I wanted to post a photo of a flower which has a reputation for some therapeutic benefits as well as looking beautiful. This white one is in our garden. Good for lockdown.

The leaves of some varieties can be dried and brewed as a tea, while the flowers produce oil. Benefits are said to include: lowered stress; reduced inflammation; boosted immunity; treatment of respiratory disorders; reduction in the severity of nose bleeds; an aid to digestion; and skin and hair treatment. Rather than try it at home, I'd be going to a herb shop.

Thanks for hosting Doyley22. Stay well all, even without a geranium treatment.
