Under the Elder Tree is a beautiful boxy fit garment-dye tee featuring original garden photography transformed into painterly art — inspired by the most magical, feared, and beloved tree of the ancient world.
The Druids held the elder sacred — a tree of transformation, regeneration, and the thin veil between worlds. On Midsummer's Eve, folklore says fairies gathered beneath her blossoms to dance in the moonlight. And no one cut an elder tree without first asking permission of her guardian spirit, the Elder Mother — to do otherwise was said to invite misfortune.
But the elder is generous as well as magical. Thrushes, robins, waxwings, and starlings feast on her dark autumn berries. For centuries, her flowers have been steeped into cordials and tinctures to ease fever, calm inflammation, and strengthen the body's own defenses — old medicine that still holds up today.
Elder is native to much of North America — wherever you garden, consider giving her a home. Few plants offer so much beauty, medicine, and food for wildlife in return for so little care.
A garment worth wearing, rooted in old magic.
Women's heavyweight garment dye tee, Bella + Canvas 6110GD. Soft, substantial, and built to last — with a relaxed boxy fit. Available in S, M, L, XL, 2XL. Front print.
Dove & Ink — where faith meets the natural world.
