Small, papery, perfectly round blooms. Beautiful and useful in equal measure.
Health benefits
Antioxidant and anti-stress properties. Traditionally used to support respiratory health, ease coughs, and soothe digestive discomfort. Rich in betacyanins — the same pigment class as beets — associated with anti-inflammatory activity.
Ways to use
Steep 4 to 6 flower heads in hot water for 5 to 8 minutes for a mild, antioxidant-rich tea. Use as a natural purple-pink food dye in drinks or desserts. Add to dried floral arrangements, wreaths, and potpourri. Use as a garnish on cocktails and baked goods.
