Celandine enjoys a long-standing reputation as a medicinal herb. The Roman scholar Pliny mentions its healing power, and we know that in the 14th century it was taken in liquid form as a blood tonic and was thought to sharpen sight and other senses. It was also used as an aid to wound healing, and was believed to be good for jaundice because of its vivid yellow flowers. Celandine is used in china to correct irregular menstrual periods.
