RE: Rare flower

With all the poison ivy around here, I think I'm going to need to plant some
"jewel weed."  LOL!

Jewel weed is an amazing treatment for poison ivy, either by rubbing the sap
on the rash or applying a tisane made from simmering the plants in water. 
Interestingly enough, it often grows along side it.  I have used it ever
since my grown children were little.
