Thank you, I am going to hunt for some soon! Someone said it makes a good mosquito repellant in tincture.

@fourseasonforaging Жыл бұрын

Yes, I've heard of it used for that purpose too! Though in my experience the herbal bug repellants never work that well :/

Hello, Is Yarrow good for a hair rinse? I have heard some people say it is good for hair growth. 💥 Looking forward to your response.

Tore my arm open, put a leaf of yarrow in my mouth and chewed it a bit, put it on my tear, stopped bleeding in 30 seconds.

Is there any difference between wild and ornamental kinds of yarrow in terms of using it as a medicinal herb?

@fourseasonforaging 3 жыл бұрын

Good question! Everything I've read says to stick to the wild varieties. My guess would be that most ornamental varieties have the same or similar uses, but it's hard to say for certain. Therefore, just sticking to the wild varieties is safer. Of course, yarrow that is planted by humans but is the same exact species as one found in the wild is safe to use.

I dried yarrow flowers for tea, it tasted so bad/ strong I was afraid to drink it. My fatty liver is stage 4 and I’m not sure it would like that strong flavor,, any advice? I also have some leaves soaking in alcohol, one with young leaves only, the other with bigger leaves. I also have just a jar of the entire plant, my first time doing this.
