Even in the smallest garden, you can create a complete medicinal herb patch. With space at premium, you need to make sure that each plant is really earning its keep.
Below is a list of the top ten plants that are as versatile as they are effective.
• Chamomile (Matricaria recutita) – soothes indigestion and colic, eases tension, and is good for skin irritations.
• Echinacea – boosts the immune system, and lessens the severity of colds and flu
• Lavender – calms and relaxes, eases pain and is antiseptic for cuts and bruises.
• Lemon balm – soothes nervous tension and anxiety, promotes sleep, and is good for cold sores.
• Marigold (Calendula officinalis) – good for sunburn, and for acne and spots, soothes ulcers and digestive problems.
• Peppermint – good for digestion, wind and headaches.
• Rosemary – helps memory and concentration, improves mood, sweetens breath.
• Sage – for coughs, colds and congestion, hot flushes.
• St John’s Wort – anti-depressant and promotes skin healing
• Viola (Viola tricolor) – anti-inflammatory, good for eczema and skin eruptions, and loosens phlegm.
• If you have a greenhouse you can boost the contents of your herbal cabinet by growing useful but tender plants such as ginger and cucumber. If you have a windowsill only, an aloe vera plant is a great option.
Many of the above plants can simply be taken as a tea (wash, chop and steep in hot water for 10 minutes).
