The flowers are used mainly as a sedative and for other aspects of the nervous and cardiac systems. They have an antispasmodic effect on the digestive tract. In the Sannio region, Italy, the diluted infusions were used to calm anxiety, insomnia and exhaustion.

The flowers are violet, hooded and two lipped and are arranged into a dense slightly oblong head. Flowering is from June to September.
