GROWERS
• Four Winds Farm
• Brackenstone Herbs
• Stensrud, Linda
• Sunshine Bay Botanicals
• Tintagel Herb Gardens

This hardy herb has rosettes of oblong, deeply toothed leaves. Balls of tufted seeds follow golden flowers from spring to autumn. The flowers are made into wine, the buds are pickled, and the leaves, rich in Vitamin A and C and minerals, are eaten in salads. The leaves are a powerful diuretic, they detoxify the blood so are given for acne and eczema. The root reduces inflammation and is an important liver stimulant.
