    Episode 210 - Folklore of Flowers | The Coven of Awesomeness Podcast

    This week we're talking about the folklore of flowers with Sarah of Rook Botanics. Humans have been fascinated by the magic of flowers since the dawn of civilization. Let's get into it.

    We proudly host our podcast with Buzzsprout.

    Welcome back to the coven of Awesomeness Podcast! This week we have the enchanting Sarah from Rook Botanics with us to talk all about the folklore of flowers. But first, delicious food. Renee has been making cheddar cheese risotto, Louise is obsessing over a steak sandwich, and Sarah has been eating delicious pastries.

    Then Sarah talks to us about the magic of flowers. We talk about the use of flowers throughout history, the Victorian language of flowers, and choosing flowers that have personal significance for you.

    And we finish, as always, with awesomeness. Renee has been watching Thunderbolts, Louise has been playing goose games, and Sarah won an auction on eBay for a very special item.

      I have a whole patch of these lovely dark purple cornflowers in front of my house! I’m sure I must have put the seeds out last year, and I got a few. They are technically annuals, BUT they very readily self-seed! So these came up pretty much on their own this spring. I’ve been taking cuttings every couple of days—but I have to put them where my cats can’t get to them. The youngest cat does not grasp she’s an obligate carnivore.

      Another thing that came up by surprise for me this year: chamomile! I’ve been trying to grow it in a pot inside, and they didn’t get very far. The outside chamomile has given me my first chamomile flower harvest, and I’m so, so happy about that.
