ATTENTION: All parts of the plant are poisonous. The toxins are unstable and of low toxicity, they are easily destroyed by heat or by drying. The sap can cause irritation to the skin.

Physical Characteristics: Perennial growing to 0.2m by 0.2m at a fast rate. It is in leaf from January to June, in flower from March to May. The flowers are hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and are pollinated by Bees, flies, beetles.
The plant prefers light (sandy), medium (loamy) and heavy (clay) soils. The plant prefers acid, neutral and basic (alkaline) soils. It can grow in semi-shade (light woodland) or no shade. It requires moist soil.

Medicinal Uses: Astringent. Lesser celandine has been used for thousands of years in the treatment of haemorrhoids and ulcers. It is not recommended for internal use because it contains several toxic components. The whole plant, including the roots, is astringent. It is harvested when flowering in March and April and dried for later use. It is widely used as a remedy for piles and is considered almost a specific. An infusion can be taken internally or it can be made into an ointment and used externally. It is also applied externally to perineal damage after childbirth. Some caution is advised because it can cause irritation to sensitive skins.

This is my second post of the same plant. But the first one was deleted from my gallery by a computer accident :). I sent it again but a fresh one. It was taken today near Yenisehir district, Kirazliyayla village.

Hello Fevzi,
gorgeous shot with beautiful colors. Excellent DOF and wonderful placement of your main subject, looks like its emerging from the frame.
POV, sharpness and details are excellent.

A.... very nice species. Here in Romania, the leaves are used like salad, but before flowering. It have a very good taste. It is not quite so poisonous.
Very good photo, maybe a little dusty. But the details are great. Bravo. Best regards, Cezar T.

Fotoğraf çok güzel hatta mükemmel. Hakkında verdiğin bilgiler de ilginç. Bu kadar güzel bir çieğin zehirli olabileceğini düşünmek bile zor.

Hi Fevzi,
