Common Agrimony ‘Agrimonia eupatoria’

A good meadow plant with decorative leaves and spikes of star-shaped yellow flowers. Attracts bees and other insects. Agrimonia eupatoria is a species of agrimony that is often referred to as common agrimony, church steeples or sticklewort. Common folklore held that it could cure musket wounds and ward off witchcraft. Traditional British folklore states that if a sprig of the plant was placed under a person’s head, they would sleep until it was removed. A Green/yellow dye can be obtained from the leaves and yellow from the Flowers and Roots.
