Description
Agrimonia eupatoria is a native meadow herb with slender, yellow-flowering panicles. The plant’s foliage is traditionally used as a mild, herbal house tea. Dried leaves and flowers produce a pleasantly spicy infusion. In a natural garden it is low‑maintenance and insect‑friendly.
Care instructions
Sow in spring or autumn in a sunny to partially shaded spot with lime‑rich, well‑draining soil. It is low‑maintenance and requires little care or watering. Harvest the flowering herb from June to August at full bloom and dry it in a well‑ventilated shade. In late autumn, cut back the withering stems.
