Leonurus cardiaca
Days to Maturity: 80
Motherwort is an easy-to-grow, ancient herb with many traditional healing uses. A resilient perennial in the mint family, it will easily self-seed and loves to grow along waterways and in neglected areas. Pollinators love it! Grows to up to 5 feet tall with clusters of pink-purple flowers along its stem.
Planting Instructions: Start Motherwort seeds indoors 8 weeks before last frost, or sow outdoors in spring or full in full sun. Sprinkle 1/8" soil on top, keeping evenly moist until germinated, up to 3 weeks (don't lose hope!).
Seed Saving Instructions: Collect Motherwort seed when seed heads are dry and easily crumble in your hand. Store seeds in a paper or mesh bag in a cool, dark and dry location.
Approximately 50 Motherwort seeds per packet
