Externally, a poultice of the leaves is a good healer of wounds and is also applied to ulcers, tumours and piles. The plant is harvested when in flower and is dried for later use. Any preparation made from the leaves needs to be carefully strained in order to remove the small hairs which can be an irritant. .

Lovage is a warming and tonic herb for the digestive and respiratory systems. It is used primarily in the treatment of indigestion, poor appetite, wind, colic and bronchitis. The roots of 3-year-old plants can be harvested in early spring or in the autumn and are used fresh or dried. The leaves are harvested before the plant comes into flower and either distilled for their oil or dried for later use.

1 | Welcome to the PHCF Plant Database! We are attempting to catalogue every plant in the garden. You can see below how many plants we plants we have indexed so far (on the left) and how many have each type of metadata associated with them. | |||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2 | How you can help: | |||||||||||||||||
3 | * Take photos of plants that aren't yet in the database. Plants flower at various different times and we might not have photos of the ones that are flowering right now! * Add information about the plants we currently have in the database. You don't have to be a horticultural expert for this, just have a bit of web savvy and be able to sleuth out the information from the internet! * Identify plants we have photos for but we (well, I) don't know what they are. You don't have to be a tech wizard for this, just have a bit of horticultural savvy and be able to work out what these mystery plants are! | |||||||||||||||||
