PteridaceaeDear friends and homeopaths
Adiantum capillus veneris belongs to the family Pteridaceae. In Reference works there is only a little information available. One reference (Wren's Potter's Encyclopedia) highlights the usage of maidenhair fern as a popular cough medicine throughout most parts of Europe. In France large quantities are employed in the preparation of the well - known Sirop de capillare. This is so interesting and it's the first time I heard about this. Perhaps its worth to carry out a proper homeopathic proving and see what other healing qualities are contained in this beautiful plant. It is photography which brings me in touch to many unknown things in life and yesterday I had a chance to capture this beautiful fern.
