I've now got four very vigorous yarrow plants which have been growing for the past five years. Last year, two of them grew to over six feet tall. The other two are doing much better this year than ever before and are already three feet with many buds. In New England, a friend and I went out on St. John's Day to gather St. John's Wort. Put it up in olive oil which it made a beautiful ruby red. Very strong aroma...very good for bruises and such.

Dorothy, you've sparked some memories...I used motherwort, hawthorn berry, and dandelion root tinctures for menopausal symptoms. It got to where I craved the tiny sip of pure water with a few drops of each in it...definitely good for my body at the time.:-)
