Common Valerian

Valeriana Officinalis

Approx 250 high quality seeds

Common Valerian is a hardy perennial often used in herbal medicine but also as an attractive garden plant. In summer it grows tall stems with white flowerheads made up of many tiny blooms, which are loved by pollinators.

Sowing: Sow valerian seeds in spring. Either sow seed directly where plants are to grow in mid to late spring, or sow in containers under cover in early spring at temperature of 20-22⁰C. When seedlings are strong enough they can be potted on. Plant outside in late spring to early summer.

Tip: Valerian self seeds freely  so unless this is desired, cut off the faded flowers before seed forms, cutting the                                                            stems back to the ground.
