#togetherendangered

A simple watercolour painting of a purple wildflower with green stems on a cream background. Lilac text in a handwritten style font reads: Endangered Species Spreading Bellflower (Campanula patula) Sound the bell for those whose lives spread vulnerably at the feet of the flourishing. Ring the bell for those whose days of vibrancy are an endangered species.

Still at the learning stage of watercolour, here’s my depiction of the endangered species Spreading Bellflower, along with a poem for fellow ME sufferers.

Sharing #millionsmissingflowers #togetherendangered to also raise awareness of #ME. Colchicum autumnale is native to Ireland (like some of my ancestors). It has medicinal properties, which makes me think of all the therapeutic potential, known and unknown, we lose as more plants become extinct.
