Medicinal Herb Plants
Growing and using your own medicinal herb plants can be a magical and empowering experience. Many medicinals have other uses as well. Quite often they are important bee and wildlife plants attracting beneficial insects to promote a healthy garden ecosystem. Many are also edible (and tasty!) and can used in the kitchen. They can also make very beautiful additions to the flower garden!
