Herbs Verbs and croutons

[Levinthross]

SOooo in my far from infinite knowledge ive been patrolling around my town and family looking for the menaings and uses of herbs random words and phrases of text. Curios (small objects and animal or plant parts invested with magical power). While realising that the witches brew section doesnt really have a ongoing herbal section or a place to collect random and useful knowledge form all parts. Thus I would like to use this thread to hopefully start a very enriching part of the forum.

So to start:

Buttercup:
Many people have found that using hanging bundles of buttercups on or near your door enduces joy and prevents depression in the home and those who frequent it. Once the petals have begun to dry and fall sweep them off your porch weekly in the morning.

Moss:
Moss collected from the east side of a oak tree have special properties because it is hit by the rising sun but not the settting sun giving it a solar associations and because it was grown on a oak tree can be kept to ensure male fertility or as a base for air or solar incenses.

I actually have a list I found on the internet for this. Most of them seem accurate but the list is incomplete as well as all the possible uses. I do not take credit for this list. They have to be used correctly to gain such effects. They also may have to be used in conjunction with another herb to achieve the desired effect. If you attempt this remember I am not liable and consider possible side effects.
