Self heal
Prunella vulgaris is such a pretty little wildflower.
The name gives a clue to its importance in herbal medicines.
But it’s not only important on this side of the world. It’s important in Chinese medicine too, as a treatment for dizziness, red eyes, dry cough and dermatitis.
I’ve a lovely crop in my lawn at the moment and, who knows, as the wildflowers spread from neglect, I might even find an orchid !
