This week Virily will be colored blue. This is my contribution to the challenge of crazy color. In old herbal books pansy was highly appreciated. Although pansy not heal a broken heart as it used to be, it is still used in many ways today, including to deal with annoying pimples, and its tea is also recommended for a spring body cleansing treatment. Overhead pansy is harvested from May to late August, early in the morning, before the flowers open. We dry quickly in the shade. We then use it to make teas. Prepare pansy tea as brew or with cold water, in the latter case, soak the for eight to ten hours. We drink two to three cups a day. This tea is especially suitable in the early spring in the form of cures. It removes unwanted substances from the body and helps with acne. We also use tea for washing in skin disorders.

I had no idea, what great information. These are so pretty.
Thank you, Kim. I also found out just recently.
That’s a lot of information on the pansy I did not know but I know this word is used in a derogatory way too
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/pansy
Thanks for the information. I didn’t know that.
I’ve never heard of the healing effects of this flower, dear Vidocka …. very interesting information
I only found out recently
Obviously, every flower is healing, which I believe a little less
I agree. Every flower is good for one thing.
Then it is best to make tea from each flower … for God’s sake help
Have you used these pansies for healing? Do they have any side effects? I love pansies, always seek them as flowers for the garden.
They have no side effects. They are used for:
The pansy’s compresses for the anti-inflammatory effect of salicylic acid effectively help with skin problems such as pimples (acne), eczema, scabies
The herb is also used in the treatment of inflammation due to rheumatism.
Anthocyanosides and flavonoids dilate blood vessels and improve blood flow. Therefore, pansy preparations are often recommended for atherosclerosis (arterial vein thickening) and heart disease.
The pansy is also known as a stool and water litter. Promotes the elimination of toxic waste from the body and helps with urinary tract infections.
Treslips enhance body resilience, and recent Norwegian studies have confirmed that peptides in the plant help to overcome infections.
This should be taught in school. Thanks for sharing Vidocka.
I love pansies in the garden but never used them for teas
I have them in the garden too, but I haven’t tried the tea yet

I’m glad you liked the information. I didn’t know that either, so I haven’t tried tea yet.
Love this shade of blue and I have read about the healing properties.
I only found out about these healing effects recently.
This is such lovey color Vidocka, We don’t have blue pansies here.
Thank you. Also we have very little pansies in blue.

Thank you, Doc. I only found out about the healing effects some time ago so I haven’t tried tea
The tea is very tasty and relaxing. Our local specialty store carries it!
Never heard about these healing properties, but pansy is always been one of my favorite flowers!!!
I only found out recently, so I did a little research.
