Mimulus: the Bach flower of confidence

More than just a plant, the mimulus gathers together nearly 180 species in the form of annuals, perennials and shrubs. One of them is used to make the famous Bach Flower Mimulus whose virtues help to control emotions, among other things.

From a purely botanical point of view, mimulus is a herbaceous plant that particularly appreciates warm, humid environments such as streams, lakes or marshy regions. With its roots constantly struggling to keep flowers at the surface of flowing water, this plant is known for its courage and willingness to take risks. It is found mainly on the American continent, but also in Asia, South Africa and Australia.

Mimulus is sometimes referred to as the "monkey flower", as some species have a morphology that resembles a monkey's face. Others are nicknamed "muskflowers" in reference to their fragrant scent. But the most widespread species is the Mimulus guttatus. This perennial with serrated evergreen foliage proudly displays its yellow flowers tinged with red and typically grouped in clusters. It blooms from summer to autumn. An annual, this eminent member of the Scrophulariaceae family can reach heights of up to 80 cm in ideal sunlight conditions.
