Beschreibung
Discover the meanings, powers, facts, and folklore for over 500 herbs and spices in The Complete Language of Herbs—now in a pocket-size edition for easy, on-the-go reference.
Along with a
beautiful visual depiction, each entry provides the herb or spice’s
scientific and common names,
characteristics, and
historic meanings and powers from mythology, medieval legends, folklore, and flower poetry.
Did you know that allspice can be added to herbal mixtures to attract money or luck? Or that sprinkling arrowroot at the doors of your home will keep guests’ negative energy from entering? Reaching the height of popularity during the Victorian era, floriographies—dictionaries of symbolic flower meanings—were an amusing pastime and art to subtly communicate unspoken emotions.
To complement the success of
The
Complete Language of Flowers, author S. Theresa Dietz has scoured historic sources and compiled an equally beautiful compendium in
The Complete Language of Herbs, revealing the secrets and powers of
hundreds of common and forgotten herbs and spices from around the world.
Together with
stunning full-color illustrations and
two indexes, one for searching
by common herb and spice name and the other organized
by meaning, this beautiful reference is a must-have for gardeners, chefs, party planners, and food enthusiasts.
