Mulling on Mullein
(Verbascum thaspus)

A statuesque plant, large soft hairy leaves, spirally arranged around the central stem reaching up to the heavens.

A macerated oil of its flowers is the best remedy for earaches, nothing compares to it. The tea of both leaf and flower very useful is dry coughs. Also used as a substitute for to***co.

Have you used it in any way?

St John’s Wort Oil is simple and fun to make.

1. Collect flowering tops in the middle of the day.
2. Rinse and place on a towel to dry off.
3. Place in large clean glass jar then add light olive oil over herb until it is completely submerged.
4. Cover with muslin cloth tightened with elastic band.
5. Place on a sunny window sill and leave for at least 2 weeks.

Let the magic happen…

A walk down memory lane today visiting the Chelsea Physic Garden, one of the oldest botanical gardens in the U.K., second only to the Oxford Botanical Garden.

Being reminded as a herbalist of the giants on whose shoulders we stand. These plants that have historically been used to help cure us of maladies and that were up until recently one of the main sources of hope for all kinds of disease and disorders and went on to forge the way for what is now modern pharmacy.

Such gratitude 🙏

ELDERFLOWER
Sabugueiro (Portuguese)
Sambucus nigra Lat.

Suffering from Hayfever? 🤧

Elderflower is here to help. It reduces fever and can help with alleviating hayfever particularly in combination with other herbs such as Nettles or Plantain. It clears channels in the body and has a toning and restoring effect on mucous membranes.

Out in flower everywhere this has to be 🌿🌿🌿 ‘Medicinal plant of the moment’! 🌿🌿🌿

Today this beautiful Dragonfly visited the garden, apparently it’s a female Blue Bodied Chaser. One of the aims of our herbal garden is to improve biodiversity so maybe this is part of a sign it’s working…😀

Great to see medicinal plants growing in public spaces such as this garden in West Berkshire Community Hospital, especially on a beautiful day like this. Lifting the spirit for those who notice it. Thanks to the WI Thatcham for creating and maintaining it!
