Agrimony Plants
agrimonia eupatoria
This hardy perennial herb comes from Europe and is prized for its medicinal properties.
Agrimony
is a lovely addition to a meadow garden, butterfly garden or perennial border; Agrimony plants have a lovely yellow scented flower that grows on dense spikes. It flowers all summer and the blooms are followed by a burr-like seed pod, hence the common name or
Cocklebur
and
Sticklewort
.
As a
medicinal herb
,
agrimony
is used to treat stomach ailments, control bleeding and improve liver and gall bladder function. It has an astringent quality, and is used externally to treat wounds. This plant has antiviral and antibacterial properties, as well as
astringent qualities as well. The
leaves and blossoms are harvested when the plant comes into flower - the chemicals are most potent at that point in its life cycle. Can be used fresh or dried, and has many medicinal uses. A teaspoon of chopped leaves is said to relieve all sorts of symptoms from bed wetting to jaundice.
It must also have had some sedative qualities, as inferred from the following passage taken from an old English medical manuscript:
"If it be leyd under mann’s heed,
He shal sleepyn as he were deed;
He shal never drede ne wakyn
Till fro under his heed it be takyn"’
It is also an herb valued for its lovely yellow color that is used for dyes.
Agrimony
is easy to grow, preferring well-drained soil and full to part sun. It produces a lovely 'wand' of yellow flowers, a perfect addition to the perennial garden. It can become invasive! We grow it in our test garden, and match it with an equally 'aggressive' grower - mints! Out of the way, but definitely a valued historic herb that adds so much history and beauty!
Note: If you plan to use Agrimony medically, make sure to consult your doctor before using.

: It grows in substandard conditions. Well drained soil is best, but will take less than perfect conditions.

Uses for Agrimony
In order to use
agrimony
for stomach issues, try making a soothing
tea. Add one to two
teaspoons of dried leaves stems or flowers to 2 cups of hot water - let the tea steep for five to ten minutes (depending upon how strong you want the tea), strain and enjoy. A cup of weak tea sipped 5 times a day will treat diarrhea. Make a stronger tea to make a gargle for sore throats and coughs. A compress can be made with VERY strong tea to treat wounds - treat several times a day.
