RE: The final proof

in HiveGarden9 months ago

The first photo is very common here in my hometown. We just find them practically anywhere. Those tiny white flowers, isn't that a Bidens Pilosa? I wrote about that and it's actually a very powerful herb that you can infuse with teas or add to salads and soups!

I've always wanted to grow my own microgreens. This has been inspiring. Thanks for sharing!

We call the ones in the first picture "mother-in-law's tongue". It is not native in Greece but it has become a popular house plant!

The tiny white flowers are chamomile. I believe it belongs to the same family with the one you said but it is a different herb. We use it for its relaxing properties as a tea before night sleep.

Microgreens are cool and easy, you should try them!

Thank you very much for stopping by :)

Oh chamomile, of course! We do use the oil for fragrance, decanters and to soothe baby colic.

Mother-in-law's tongue is a low-maintenance houseplant, no wonder it's become popular. But why mother in law's, I wonder. Could it be because's it's sharp? 😅

I have no idea but it is a really funny name :)
