This plant is known in Orkney as “meal-an’-folly,” 
which is no doubt a corrupted form of the technical 
term. It is said to have been used at one time in 
making a decoction like tea. The specimen in my 
herbarium is var. lanata. Neil says, “At a cottage 
door in Kirbuster, Deerness, a large collection of the 
flowering tops of the dwarfy iilfoil was laid out to 
dry. They infuse this and drink it as tea. It is in 
repute for dispelling melancholy.” 
201. A. Prarmica (Linn.), Sneeze-wort. Common. 
Sometimes this plant produces a deformed flower 
slightly resembling an unripe strawberry. It is 
probably produced by a gall.
