Many medicinal plants are classified as weeds or wild flowers - the terminology depends in many cases on your point of view. Find out how to grow and use wild plants, which parts to use and what to use them for.
Not all of us are into formal gardening. A good solution is to make a wildlife garden, with a wild flower meadow and patches of important food plants for wildlife. So you end up with a garden full of weeds and other wild plants. Can you make home remedies from such unpromising material? Yes, you can.
Natural remedies go back into antiquity, and if you think about it, there wasn't the range of plants available which we now expect to find. None of the culinary herbs we all know and love - most of them were taken to the UK by the Romans some 2000 years ago, brought to the New World with the Pilgrim Fathers in the 1600s.
It's believed that even many common weeds originated with the Roman Empire, so now you know who to blame! But they didn't carry these plants with them for no reason. They had a purpose - and that purpose was for use as natural cures for common ailments, most of which we still suffer from today.
