Blue color from flowers: To make blue dye the Native Americans on the West Coast used the Delphinium flower.
Get well flowers:Flowers are a great way to let someone who is ill, or just feeling blue, know you're thinking of him, even if you can't visit him in person. They're not only a terrific way to brighten up a hospital room, but can ease the loneliness of recovering at home. They are a simple, sincere and unobtrusive way to lift spirits, bring a smile to a tired face or brighten up a room for someone who is under the weather. Medicinal uses of the rose: Long ago rose petals were used to control bleeding because they contain an astringent called tannin.
