The Unicorn Herbal


Plants and herbs are an important part of unicorn lore. There are plants like true and false unicorn, both named for the unicorn. There are even some plants like Yellow Unicorn, Unicorn Spiral plant and more that are fun to be able to add to your garden. I am working on accumulating a "unicorn garden" myself, with plants sacred to the unicorn in it. There will of course, be the featured plants: plants held in high regard by the unicorn such as the apple, and some named after it. As an artist, I am also researching garden decor methods to add to the unicorn decorations I have already put in my garden.

Flora: some flowers, apple, cinnamon, cedar, wild holly, wild strawberries, sugar maple, lilacs. (the unicorn is said to hide its treasure in a maple box buried under an apple tree), clover (especially red clover), apple blossoms, centaury, chicory, ferns, mosses, unicorn root (aletris farinosa)

Unicorn in the Name:
False Unicorn: stimulate ovarian, treat venereal disease, sore throat gargle (to reduce bad breath smell), treat impotence, relieve PMS and menstral imbalances.
True Unicorn
Unicorn Spiral
Yellow Unicorn

Plants Sacred to Unicorn:
Strawberry
Apple
Psilocybin Mushroom
Marijuana
Lily
