Brigitte is tremendously inspiring and this app reflects the care and knowledge she has about these plants. Please start with a few cities and pull out lists of plants we can find during the summer and then expand on that. Thanks!
I use this reference often as I am a great believer in herb teas as health enhancers and this guide, for the herbs it includes, is quite good. Even better, I only recently realized I can search for the herb I need by the condition Im hoping to improve, e.g. Sinusitis, headache, arthritis,etc. and the guide yields a list of the most useful herbs associated with that condition. Well Done. Ive been drinking herb teas for 40+ years and now am a tad more efficient at it thanks to this resource.
I was so excited to see this app. Its a great little reference app. However I didnt give it 5 stars because it wish it could be more expansive (I.e. How can it not have rhodiola? ) Also many of the entries are cut off in mid sentence so thats disappointing. However it does have lots of information such as contraindication, etymology, plant part use and medicinal uses. Its very general but its a good snapshot and theres a bonus section on how to make tinctures and some others. Wish I could also search by scientific name. There are some herbal books I own that only list the scientific names so this would be a helpful tool. However Im glad I have it.
I love this app have had it since the 2nd gen touch was new or about then --I have seen many changes in it in that time and while it doesnt update a ton its a very stable platform and has a ton of good info as well its my first reference app if this dosent have the plant then I go to another app As always room for improvement and I know some of what Ive commented to the developers they had in mind --in the past (I havent opened lately) there were some that didnt have pictures but they werent common to me so I wasnt overly concerned by it
I love the high quality photos of each plant. Thank you!
