What’s currently growing in my indoor medicinal herb garden? Here’s the list! (Most of these were freshly harvested, and some of them are just growing with the intention of moving them outdoors in the spring)
1. Echinacea* (immune support)
2. Calendula (topical + digestive health)
3. Astragalus* (immune modulator)
4. Bergamot (respiratory + digestive support)
5. Holy basil (tulsi) (calming, blood sugar support, lots of things!)
6. Ashwagandha* (sleep, cortisol balance)
7. Catnip (calming, sleep, digestive support)
8. Lemon balm (calming, sleep, anti-viral)
9. Chamomile (calming, sleep, digestive support, anti-inflammatory)
Not pictured (because they’re on the backside 😆)
10. Yarrow (anti-inflammatory, antiseptic)
11. Wormwood (anti-parasitic)
12. Wild lettuce (pain relief)
*I’m not harvesting these plants inside - they will be moved outside in the spring. I didn’t have luck with my outdoor ashwagandha this year so I’m trying a longer growing season for it.🤞Astragalus and echinacea are both perennials that will go outside and stay out there, but really, I mainly wanted to grow echinacea inside for the flowers! 🌺
