Elecampane
is a striking perennial garden plant growing to five feet or more
in height and bearing sunflower-like flowers. It has a number
of historical uses as a root vegetable, and as a cough and acne
remedy.
In the garden the flowers are an
excellent
bee and butterfly attractant. Elecampane grows very well in West Wales
an is a stunning addition to the back of the herb border or as a
feature plant. The photo above was taken in our garden at Motygido.
