The pretty pink flower that has the power to heal!
About the Author
I am currently a sophomore at
The University of
Wisconsin La Crosse, where I am studying Biomedical Science, with a
minor in Spanish. I grew up in the small rural community of Kiel,
located on the northeastern side of Wisconsin. Born and raised on a
dairy farm, I aspire to become a large animal veterinarian. I have a
passion for working with animals and spending time outdoors. My
classmates and I were all assigned to research and create a website on
a "medicinal organism." I chose the Rosy Periwinkle because I was
interested in the reputation of the plant and its ability to be used as
an anti-cancer drug. I hope that you have gained a better understanding
and appreciation towards the Madagascar Periwinkle!
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, I can be contacted by
