Fleabane. This is Erigeron philadelphicus, one of those ubiquitous "weeds" that widely ignored when not being mowed, pulled up, or poisoned by lawn owners all over North America. I don't think it's actually much use against fleas, but I've heard it is genuinely useful against mites, so I might try some in the chicken coop at Seraphin Station this year. It's got a host of medicinal uses, especially for coughs, colds, and minor wounds, though it probably shouldn't be used by pregnant women. Spiritually, use it to ward off pests and pestiferous entities. Definitely don't use it for goals related to love or sex, even if you see some sources attributing it to Venus (which i think is kind of a weird association - I am not feeling that connection). It's supposedly edible but I have no experience with consuming it. #erigeronphiladelphicus #fleabane #bayouhoodoo #bayouhoodooherbal #seraphinstation #karmazain #bigluckyhoodoo #foraging #philadelphiafleabane https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiCLs6Ov-3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In case you've been wondering why your order, report, or reply is taking so long, let me give ya a status update. I've been in the process of moving basically half my stuff to Haphazard Station in Louisiana, which will be my home base for part of the year as I work on the Bayou Hoodoo Herbal. I've been trying to get this set up for a good while now, but my car broke down on my last trip in November and screwed up everything, leaving me with inventory, raw materials, paperwork, and possessions spread out across three states. The car was toast. Things have been pretty chaotic. I finally made it back to Haphazard, but since I'm basically hitchhiking to get from one place to the other these days, I rushed out the door to catch a ride with a pretty flawed packing list and ended up in rural Louisiana without some pretty important things, among them some of the more important herbs and roots I have to have to do my work and fill your orders. (Yep, this genius rootworker walked out the door without John the Conqueror root - you know, only one of the *most important roots in Southern hoodoo* 🙄 ) I finally have the majority of that stuff back on my shelves, shipped to me from Seraphin Station or ordered or located locally, so order processing will be going more quickly now. Unfortunately I still don't have reliable internet here, even after having lost most of a workweek to the pursuit, but hopefully the fourth time will be the charm for AT&T techs! #seraphinstation #haphazardstation #bigluckyhoodoo #karmazain https://www.instagram.com/p/Cncb4XqrVjn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Yaupon holly berries (ilex vomitoria). A native plant that is a source of free caffeine. The tea is tasty despite the unfortunate Latin name. . #bayouhoodooherbal #foraging #haphazardstation #seraphinstation #bigluckyhoodoo #karmazain https://www.instagram.com/p/CnX5Ogwrd1E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
