$8.50
Out of stock
Another plant for a sunny site. My feverfew self-sows gently without being weedy.
A customer told me that she i s eating two or three leaves when she feels that a migraine might come.
It seems to reduce the severity and frequency of migraines as well as reducing the length of migraines and alleviate the increased sensory sensitivity that occurs during a migraine.
Historically Tanacetum was also used for arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis due to the anti-inflammatory properties of the herb.
The strong aroma makes it a good insect repellent.
