This general purpose female herb is sheer elegance in pure blue, 5" flower spikes which devour plants in July. In northern Ohio, perennial shrub dies back to ground each winter, but grows into small 12' trees, zone 7 or warmer. Pepper-corn sized seeds have been used in the past to reduce female sexual desire (and "hot flashes") - hence the name. You choose whether you want to stand clear or attack it, but seriously, respect it's power and do your own research. |
