Fringed Puccoon~ Borage~April Oklahoma Wildflower
Puccoon is a Native American word.
The roots yield a blue or violet dye that was used by some Native American tribes.
The Cheyenne treated delirium with a tea made from the roots,
stems, and leaves. They would also grind the dried leaves, stems, and
roots to make a powder to treat paralysis. Fringed puccoon was
used by the Navajo to treat coughs and colds.

It's cooled down here in Central Texas..and will stay in
the 60s for today.

Another gorgeous wildflower post.
We had quite a bit of much needed rain here last night.
Our prayers were answered. Praise God.
