Hear ye, hear ye, tattooists and tattooed! Illustrators and enthusiasts! Discover medieval plants through their symbolism and associated beliefs.
The Middle Ages were full of astonishing meanings, magical rituals and remedies of all kinds. From plants used by witches, such as mandrake and datura, to majestic and divine trees, such as oak and walnut, every element of nature has a meaning. Even for the proud red poppy, its beauty tarnished and stained black by the hands of the devil. Many plants also find their place in the world of knighthood and courtesy, through little stories that explain why they are offered. Such is the case with forget-me-nots, whose harvesting gave life to a knight with a heart of love.
