Self Heal 500 seeds

Selfheal is easily recognisable by its upright, oblong, dense cluster of violet flowers. After flowering the head persists as a purple-tinged seed head. This stands on top of a stem with a pair of oval, stalked leaves immediately below it.

Selfheal is a woodland and grassland plant which would do well as groundcover in the front of a border or in a meadow or woodland edge situation. As the name suggests, it was once widely used in herbal medicine. It is generally pollinated by bees.
