Questions & Comments

Hi! This was growing everywhere in my garden last year. I thought it was a common 'weed.' I liked it and let it grow as a border. I wish I had known it was edible and beneficial. Thank you for the info!

You're quite welcome. Actually I didn't know either until I started my herbalism course. And it tastes good and mild :)

I don't suppose it's an online course? I'm looking to learn about all sorts of things herbal. From growing, harvesting, and medicinal / natural health and beauty uses.
