About this herb:
Scientific name: Ceratostigma willmottiana
Description: Cerato is a perennial herb. It comes originally from Tibet and grows to a height of 25 inches. It is cultivated in private gardens. The blossoms, smaller than 1 inch in length, keep for only a few hours and change in color from bluish to reddish-violet. It blooms from August through September.

The aims of this flower essence:
One is uncertain, has too little confidence in one´s own opinion and ability to judge. One needs instructions and other people´s confirmation, one permanently asks for advice.

Dr. Bach wrote:
Those who have not sufficient confidence in themselves to make their own decisions. They constantly seek advice from others, and are often misguided.  (The 12 Healers and other remedies, 1936)
