Gentian – Bach Flowers (Gentiana amarella)

Gentian is one of the 38 emotional flowers or Bach flowers. It is made from the flowers of autumn gentian, also called felwort (Gentiana amarella). Bach placed it in the group ‘Uncertainty’.

According to Bach, this is the flower for anyone who loses heart when things get difficult, even when the journey has barely begun. Autumn gentian flowers in late summer and autumn, in dry, sunny meadows.

You can choose between two versions, both in a 30 ml amber glass bottle:

• With brandy: the original preparation, with water and alcohol from brandy.
• Alcohol-free: with vegetable glycerine and water, for those who prefer it without alcohol.

The directions on the label are the same for both versions: 4 drops directly into the mouth, one to three times a day, at any time.

On the Bach Flowers page you'll find all 38 flowers, divided into Bach's seven groups.
