well I seem to have had a complete block on this one and became involved with the viola odorata on my walk. I should have consulted the authoritive list as when I consulted with Kristina Patmore at the Botanic Garden in Wales she informed me that this is the plant the physicians used and not the odorata.... This little wild dog violet has no smell but I am happy to comply..... I plan to use this little flower on one of the panels borders.
Kristina was also very sweet in that she said that the early writings could be taken in different ways..... but I wish to stick with authenticity... ah human error ..... but it is good to rectify... I am removing the odorata from the log now..... not in disrespect but to continue the natural flow of things.
