"People call this The Age of Flowers, knowing that many hearts will be healed as we live in a world of ever increasing turmoil."

The flower essence is the Life-Force of the flower extracted and then preserved in a liquid form. These remedies work vibrationally in a holistically organised system for the healing of humans and animals.
