Professional herbal-botanical question: since not all echinacea flowers are medicinal, how do you know which ones are?? Curious. I find them very hard to distinguish from the ornamental ones.

Were you able to save any of the roots, since that's where the really powerful medicine is concentrated?? I'd give my back teeth for some echinacea roots in rainy monsoon season!!

I love flower teas. How did this one TASTE?
