You will not immediately pay attention to Violet tricolor, lost in the grass. But, it is worth looking at the plant more closely, as you will be fascinated by its modest beauty and grace of leaves and flowers. In addition, the wild-growing Violet tricolor herb has healing powers, in contrast to the numerous picturesque garden forms bred by breeders from a wild relative

Queen of flower beds

Pansies, which won the title of "Queen of Flower Beds" by their popularity among flower designers, who fell in love with these unpretentious plants for the large flowers of the most incredible color, are descendants of the modest Violet tricolor, growing without human care in the wild. True, for its spectacular beauty, Pansies have lost the healing abilities that nature has endowed with the wild Tricolor Violet. Nature seems to dose her bounties so that there are no plants, insects, mushrooms, animals or people left on the planet that are bypassed by her attention. After all, no matter what they say about the infinity of our ordered, harmonious Universe, even it has a limit beyond which stretches cold and gloomy Chaos, periodically reminding earthlings of itself with its destructive intrusions into the harmony of the real world.

Ubiquitous weed

The unpretentiousness of Violet tricolor allows her to settle in the most unfavorable places in the northern half of Europe, as well as in the southern lands of Russian Asia, for example, in the coal-bearing Kuzbass. Its low-growing bushes can be found in burnt-out areas and clearings, in dry meadows with low grasses, on the edges of a forest or in light forests, and even in fertilized garden spaces or fallow agricultural fields, it is located with special comfort, if only a person looses control over plantings.

Graceful savage

The tricolor violet does not seek to surprise the world with its growth, rising in height to a maximum of forty centimeters. Its simple oblong leaves are provided with large stipules and are decorated with coquettish teeth along the edge. The most charming element of the plant is a three-colored, graceful medium-sized flower crowning a long peduncle. The upper petal can be blue, violet, violet-bluish, blue. The side petals sometimes duplicate the color of the upper petal, or are colored a little lighter, or even show a yellow color at all. The base of the lower petal is always yellow. Dark veins fan out from the center of the flower along the petals, giving the flower a semblance of an animated funny face, slyly looking at the world around it. You look at an elegant savage, you involuntarily smile at her in return. Violet tricolor is a real natural healer of human mood.

The healing abilities of the wild Tricolor Violet

Violet tricolor, growing in the wild, is able not only to improve the mood of a person with its slyly mischievous flower "face", but also to help the work of many internal organs of a person. For healing infusions and decoctions, plants are harvested from May to August. The collected grass is tied in small bunches and dried in the shade.

Infusion of herbs treat colds, as well as kidneys and stomach with intestines, succumbed to inflammatory diseases. To maintain the cleanliness and elasticity of the skin of the face and neck, it is recommended to wipe it two or three times a day with a cotton swab dipped in infusion, which will not only support the skin, but also significantly save the family budget.

Taking a decoction of the herb Violet tricolor helps to cope with nervous breakdowns, diseases of the respiratory tract, to establish impaired metabolism in the body, to relieve pain in rheumatism and gout. Lotions and compresses using a decoction help with skin diseases.

Atherosclerosis and skin diseases are treated with herbal tea.

When self-medication, you should consult your doctor, since there are a number of contraindications for the use of Violet tricolor herb for medicinal purposes.
