Mullein

[Guest guest]

Yes, Bonnie, this is mullein.

It like to grow on roadside or recently turned over vacant lot's

because the seeds have a hard time in hard ground.

Use the flowers infused in olive oil for earaches.

The leaves from two year old mullein can be smoked as a tobacco substitute.

Also good burned in a shallow dish for people who have bronchitis.

Tea can be made from the leaves, also, but it needs to be strained well.

Together with plantain , honey and lemon, it's a wonderful cough remedy.

The roots, infused in alcohol as a tincture make a fine remedy for all

kind of back aches..

Look for clean mullein..
