Medicinal perennials to know and grow / Dan Jason and Rupert Adams ; watercolour illustrations by Lyn Alice.
"Growing your own medicine is empowering--learn how with plant activists Dan Jason and Rupert Adams. Many common, easy-to-grow plants can energize or soothe, stimulate the immune system, aide in sleep or digestion, help to heal injuries, change blood pressure, reverse inflammation, soothe a sore throat--and more. But how do you find or grow them, and how do you use them? This compact book describes some of the best-known medicinal plants and provides expert information on their care and use. Accompanied by the beautiful watercolour illustrations of Lyn Alice, Dan Jason and Rupert Adams explain the nature of each plant, how to grow them, their medicinal properties and other potential perks, such as their ability to produce dyes or attract pollinators. Jason and Adams focus on plants that will thrive in the West Coast, and their local knowledge is tried and tested in their own gardens. The medicinal perennials in this book will make beautiful, useful and environmentally positive additions to any local garden."-- Provided by publisher.
