Delphinium |
Early reports of drinking small amounts of larkspur helped against the sting of scorpions.
They have been used in the treatment of dropsy & spasmodic asthma, generally in the form of a tincture, which has been much employed as a lotion, or as an ointment for the destruction of lice.
PRECAUTIONS:
Ingestion leads to nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, muscular spasms.
If fatal, death is usually due to respiratory collapse or cardiac arrest.
MAGIC:
It is said that if you gaze at the Midsummer fires through a bunch of Delphinium, your eyesight will improve.
In Transylvania it was believed to keep witches away from stables.
Larkspur keeps away ghosts while frightening scorpions & other poisonous creatures.
