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.

~Good Morning To The Finest~
I found this one and thought it was a wow..
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.
