Valerian
Valerian is a tall perennial with pretty pink-white flowers from the second year. It is used traditionally as a medicinal plant and its flowers are used in Biodynamic preparations. It provides plentiful nectar for pollinators – and can also be a favourite amongst felines, as an alternative to catnip! Each packet contains 0.5g of organic seed. More details below.
