Description

The listing, Jewel Weed for Poison Ivy Remedy has ended.

This is the plant that Native Americans have used for years to treat poison ivy, poison oak, rashes, stinging nettle, etc. The hummingbirds go crazy over the flowers and you will discover many hovering over your plants. The plants develop little pods in the fall that "pop" at the least amount of movement and only contain a very few seed, and this makes it difficult to collect. My wildcrafter friend and I get many orders for this plant and for soap which we often make from it. I do have a set amount of seed I've set back to list on Listia, so get them while you can. The plant can be used fresh to diffuse the oils when your skin comes in contact with poison ivy. The plant can also be sold to soapmakers, or try making your own soap. It's really very easy and I have a simple recipe I am glad to share. The plants have all dispersed their seed for this season so supplies will be limited.
It likes a damp or moist area to grow. Prefers some shade
but we find it growing in several different locations, mostly profuse near creek banks or edges of woodland.
Check my profile as I will be listing some of my soap soon.
It's handy to carry in your pocket when hiking, fishing, hunting, etc. I keep a bar near my outside spiqot that I wash up with after gardening. Can't live without it. I hike every day that weather permits, as wildcrafting is my hobby, and I NEVER get rashes. I will say, I use the soap often and regularly and timely.
Good luck on your bidding.

This auction is for approximately thirty hard earned seed.


If you go to my home page, I now have listed some of the jewelweed soap I make.

It's really a great plant and I promote it every chance I get. Anyone who loves the outdoors needs to learn what it looks like and use it, and if you cant find the plant, make soap with it so you always have some with you. I have soap listed too now. thanks for your bid.

My friend just recieved an order for a hundred pounds of this weed for commercial soap making. It sells for 35 to 45 a pound. Not bad for a good money crop.

ohh, love your pic. I raised wolves for many years. Awesome friends and companions. I am very careful when picking to only take part of the crop It is necessary as I return to my favorite patches and have done so for many many years. I am unable to fan at this time, listia says i've reached my limit? sorry.
