Flower Macro - St. John's Wort
Our st.John's Wort Bush which is just outside our kitchen door is in full bloom currently. This is only right as it gets its name because it blooms around June 24th which is the feast day of St.John. The other of its name are not enlightening - 'klamath weed' and 'tipton weed' though 'amber' and and 'hardhay' are a little more encouraging. Its medicinal uses are legion and it is used frequently as a treatment for mild depression.
