Commonly Found, Extraordinarily Useful
Plantain (Plantago lanceolata) is a perennial herb native to North and South America, Europe and most of Africa. Its oblong leaves grow in basal rosette, with characteristic parallel veins running along the 5-6” length. Plantain flower stalks are are about 15”long, covered with tiny, inconspicuous light colored flowers.
Plantain is common around the world, often considered a garden weed, springing up readily along roadsides, in parking lots, or anywhere soil has been disturbed. Though a common plant, Plantain has been found to be extraordinarily useful to humans throughout history as food, first aid, and medicine. Plantain leaf tea can be taken to help support healthy digestion and the respiratory system, including in the case of occasional coughs or cold. Plantain leaf has also often been used topically for minor skin irritations, insect bites or stings or as a mouth rinse.
Pour one cup of water over 1-2 teaspoons of herb. Steep for 4-5 minutes. Strain and drink.

"Fresh good quality"
"I ordered plantain leaves to use in a recipe from Maria Treben of Austria that is used to calm a bad cough. I had a chronic cough for many years, but the use of this tea which includes plantain leaves, thyme, lemon juice and honey, three times a day, cut the cough out in about 2 weeks. Amazing. I am thankful to find the plantain leaves here at Smallflower, since it is not available in dried form locally. In the summer I pick it out of the yard, but I needed a winter supply. Thank you, Smallflower, for carrying this product."
