This large and black caterpillar is too gruesome. I saw this in our yard last week. Avoid getting in touch with this kind of critter because it will irritate your skin too much.

I like this daisy-like flower. Chamomile is a herb plant whose leaves, seeds, or flowers are used for flavoring food or in medicine. Other uses of herbs include cosmetics, dyes, and perfumes. The name derives from the Latin herba, meaning “green crops.” Chamomile or camomile refers to two different geni of plant in the Asteraceae family: Anthemis nobilis, known as Roman chamomile; and Matricaria recutita, known as German chamomile. It is found in temperate zones of Europe, Asia, North America, and Australia.

Herbal medicine “Peperomia pellucida”

(Peperomia pellucida) also known as “pansit-pansitan”, “ulasimang bato” or “sinaw-sinaw”. Leaves and stem maybe eaten as vegetables; Infusion and decoction of leaves and stems are used for gout and arthritis. Pounded whole plant use as warm poultice for boils and pimples. It can be used as facial rinse for complexion problems. It is also good for kidney problems as it cleanses the kidneys. Put fresh leaves in a pitcher of water and drink it daily.
