Plant of the Day

Sunday 12 December 2021

Next to the compost heaps at Great Dixter, Sussex, a couple of Lavatera arborea ‘Variegata’ (tree mallow, sea lavatera, sea mallow, velvet leaf, wild tree mallow) plants were thriving. This plant grows from seed to be a biennial or a short-lived perennial with semi-evergreen variegated foliage and purple flowers in the summer.

Tree mallow🌺 Absolutely beautiful, it can also be used medicinally for treating👇🏼 Irritation of the mouth, throat, dry cough, bronchitis, stomach and bladder complaints. 🔴 Before attempting to try this plant internally please make sure you consult with your general health practitioner‼️ In order to treat wounds, its normally placed into hot water and applied (externally) directly onto the skin. People who are accustom to the plant like to pickle the buds and flower. The leaves🌱 of this wild beautiful plant 🌺 Can be cooked and eaten like spinach or added to thicken soups🍲 The mallow flower 🌺 contains a mucus-like substance, which has been found to be beneficial, however there isn't enough scientific evidence or information that helps to determine a safe dose, so its always best to consult with your healthcare provider before attempting to use it internally. . . . . . #treemallow #mouthirritation #mouthguard #healthymouth #throat #sorethroat #throatirritation #healthythroat #throatpain #drycough #bronchitis #bronchitissucks #bronchitisproblems #bladder #bladderproblems #bladdercontrol #stomach #stomachache #happystomach #wounds #woundcare #woundhealing #wound #healthtips #holisticmedicine #holistichealthcoach #holisticnutrition #holisticwellness (at Richmond, Surrey, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDdVaxKJTSF/?igshid=u1x5hlpbwb9z

when the rain gives you a flattened tree mallow, make a bouquet and put it in a rusty watering can!

the tree mallows are delighting us right now. taller than me (!!), and almost as sparkly. a long-flowering perennial, perfect to add height without bulk. and imagine the size of that flower bouquet! . #mygarden #lavatera #lavaterabarnsley #treemallow #beefriendly #perennials #gardendesign #landscapedesign #englishstyle #summer #pinkflowers #seattle #pnw #plants #plantingdesign #cuttinggarden #shotoniphone (at Queen Anne, Seattle) https://www.instagram.com/p/BydZ3pmAujz/?igshid=12k528n4wy3xt
