Hi Paul, Aug 3, 2012
Boneset tea tastes awful so it must be good. I tried some in 2011 =

Boneset (Aug 2009) tea.

The next day I was able to use the chainsaw for about 5 hours.

Subject: [NatureNS] Boneset
Hi All
Yesterday evening after the rain I went to spend a little
time on the river. It was dark and overcast with only a few drops
of rain. I waded in a pool so I was close to the truck should
a downpour come on - LOL!
The light made the Boneset on the banks very showy. I know it
is often not a show stopper but the evening light brought it out.
An interesting plant, suprisingly not on any poison, obnoxious list
that I could see. It was used for a lot of things in the old days
but has passed out of favor. Who knows what properties will be
discovered it has in the future?
Does anyone know if it is a host plant for any butterflies?
Interesting birds passed by but in the interests of SAR, I will
refrain from mentioning them here.
Enjoy the summer
Paul
