Philotheca is an Australian flower remedy obtained from Philotheca salsolifolia . Useful for promoting self-esteem and proposing new goals, it has beneficial effects on the lymphatic system. Let's find out better.
Description of the plant
Philotheca salsolifolia - shrub native to Queensland and New South Wales. It grows mainly in the moors and on sandy soils.
It reaches the height of one meter and on the ends of the numerous thin branches appear the star-shaped flowers, pink-mauve with five petals that open completely around the center of the flower, showing the ten straight stamens joined to the base.
The leaves are small, narrow and thick. The Philotheca is easily confused in the environment in which it grows, and is confused with another plant, the Eristemon: this reminds us that the main characteristic of this essence is that of helping us to accept the recognition of our 'being' and of the our successes, as well as the love of others and being recognized by them.
