- The people used to make tea long ago with a weed called the heartsease. They used to dry it in the sun. When they used to have it dry, they used to hang it on a line on the loft of the house. They used to boil it according as they used it. The weed grows in the harvest and in the Summer. A lot of it grows in the meadows where the land is rich. It is of a blue brown colour. A little blue flower grows on it. It is a small plant about five inches in height.
