Omschrijving
Ireland's wild plants have been part of our culture and folklore from the earliest times, featuring in Brehon Laws, early Irish poetry and herbal medicine. Different aspects of plant folklore are examined: their roles in magical protection, in charms and spells, as emblems in children's games, in Irish place names and folklore cures.
