Description
Agrimonia eupatoria, a small yellow flower with a pleasant fragrance and a tangy, bitter taste, is found in most temperate climates. Medicinal benefits are derived from the flowering portion of the plant, which is cut a few inches above the ground and dried.
The name "Agrimonia" comes from "argemone," the word given by the ancient Greeks to plants that healed the eyes. "Eupatoria" comes from the name of King Mithradates Eupator who was skilled in mixing herbal remedies. The Anglo-Saxons used Agrimony to heal wounds, bites, and warts, and the French still use it to treat sprains and bruises. Agrimony also has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and diuretic properties. Agrimony has been found to aid those with asthma, bronchitis, diarrhea, incontinence, sore throat and indigestion.
