These plants are toxic to animals ..they are great for taking care of moles or other small pests..don't know about medicinal info. But I can't imagine it being used that way..
They're perfect for getting rid of gophers. I cage mine with chicken wire to keep the dogs away from it. Good auction. The roots stink to moles and other underground pests. I grow one near my root vegetables. Works like a charm. Cheers.
