Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Flowers of the Caucasus 2nd Series - Рulsatilla aurea - Soviet Union 1976 - Michel's USSR 4546 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

I was always surprised how people, in ancient times, were able to learn the beneficial properties of certain plants.

It should be noted that many plants used in medicine are themselves very poisonous and toxic.

It remains to be seen who was the guinea pig of the first doctors and how many people did not know the result of the research, lol.

But we will not know this.

Thank God, a lot of time has passed and we can use the research of our ancestors without fear.

But, with regard to the properties of herbs and their collection, then here, you must always be careful, as when collecting mushrooms.

Use reference books, compare the found plant several times with photographs from different sources, it is very easy to make a mistake, a fatal mistake.

On another postage stamp from a series of stamps Flowers of the Caucasus 2nd Series, we see a poisonous but very useful plant Рulsatilla aurea.

It has anti-inflammatory properties, but. its juice is very toxic and can damage your skin, work with gloves.

It should be noted that it is this type of plant Рulsatilla that is very sparingly discussed on the Internet, but you can learn about the properties of other varieties of this plant.

6,400,000 copies, this is the circulation of this postage stamp, which received a face value of 2 kopecks of the USSR.

With 2 kopecks in your pocket, you could make a phone call at a telephone booth, or buy two boxes of matches.

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.
