" Medicinal Perennials to Know and Grow is a wonderful book that inspires and provides knowledge on how to grow your own medicinal plants. This valuable information will help you to create an earth-loving garden that is biologically diverse and will provide you with beneficial and sustainable medicine for years to come. With every passing season perennial medicine plants get stronger, bigger and expand their root systems and once they are established are easy to care for. Harvesting and making medicines with plants that you have grown is a wonderful feeling, as you are in touch with every aspect from the seed to the harvest to the medicine! If you are looking for information on how to do this or expand your already growing garden, I would recommend this beautifully illustrated book that is packed full of wisdom and practical knowledge." --Beverley Gray, Herbalist and author of The Boreal Herbal: Wild Food and Medicine Plants of the North and Medicinal Wild Plants of Canada and owner Aroma Borealis Herb Shop in Whitehorse, Yukon. "Anyone interested in herbs will enjoy this beautifully illustrated little guide from two people who know these plants well. Even gardeners already familiar with some of the plants profiled may be surprised to learn that they have medicinal qualities or how valuable many are to pollinators. The information on growing and using each plant is clear, practical and provides all you need to know to have a thriving garden of interesting herbs.
