Prunella vulgaris

Origin: Minnesota

Improvement status: Wild

Seeds per packet: ~200

Germination tested 12/2025: 31%

Life cycle: Perennial

Also called "heal-all", "woundwort," "heart-of-the-earth," "carpenter's herb," "blue curls," "brownwort", "kalyuth" in Kashmir, and "xia ku cao" in Traditional Chinese Medicine, self-heal is an edible mint-family perennial with pretty purple flowers and a wide array of medicinal uses. Its many names are a testament to its broad utility. It's considered a native species to much of the world, namely Eurasia, Africa, and North America. It can often be found growing on roadsides and other disturbed areas, as well as woodland edges and in gardens. It somewhat resembles dead-nettles, but has longer, smoother leaves and grows taller.

The young leaves and stems of self-heal are eaten raw, and the whole plant can be cooked and eaten as a leaf vegetable. It is also dried for tea and also powdered and brewed into a cold infusion, both as a beverage and a soaking bath for muscle pain. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it's used to treat dizziness, bloodshot eyes, dry coughs, and skin inflammations. It's not surprising the plant has so many medicinal effects, since it's loaded with phytochemicals including D-camphor, betulinic acid, cyanidin, lauric acid, oleanolic acid, rosmarinic acid, myristic acid, rutin, linoleic acid, lupeol, and tannins, in addition to various vitamins and minerals.

Our seed was foraged in Minnesota by our dear friend and colleague Esther Liu.

GROWING TIPS: Seeds need no special treatment, though one month of cold-moist stratification might improve germination rates. Fall sowing is effective as well. Seeds can be started indoors 8-10 weeks before last frost, or sown directly in the ground in early spring. Sow seeds just below surface, as light improves germination. Keep seedlings well watered until well established. Thrives in full-sun to partial shade. Will spread if given the chance.

A foaming cleanser that doesn't dry out my skin!
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have very dry, reactive skin and initially looked past this face wash because it is foaming which is usually a no-go for my skin. I am pleasantly surprised with how well my skin tolerated this product. No dryness or irritation and my face felt clean. I also love that it is fragrance free because fragrances seem to really irritate my skin and who needs to smell their face wash? I am happy to say this is another great product from Avene!

Gentle cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser, Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have dry and sensitive skin, and this cleanser has worked very well for me. It is very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation. The texture is light and foamy, it spreads easily across the face and rinses off without leaving any residue. After using it, my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable, without any tightness. The size is quite large, which I find great because it lasts a long time with daily use. Overall, a simple but very pleasant cleanser for sensitive skin.

Nice little addition to you tabletop or bookshelf.
I liked the size and shape of the sculpture. It is small but makes a statement when stacked on top of a few books. I love it!

Nice Addition to My Bookshelf
After Christmas my bookshelves were looking a little blah. Wanted something a little different so I thought I would try a statue. This is very nice. Looks like the picture. It's small. 6 inches. Have it sitting on top of some books. Good value for the money.
