(Prunella vulgaris) Whether you’re looking to add beauty to your garden, attract pollinators, or have a readily available heirloom medicinal herb, Heal-All, or Self-Heal, is an excellent choice. Perfect for meadow gardens or as a ground cover for shady areas, forming dense, lush green mats and being incredibly easy to grow, making it ideal for beginner gardeners. This native plant, with its beautiful blue-violet flowers, is not only a delight to the eyes but also a valuable resource for bees, which flock to its nectar-rich blooms.


This semi-evergreen perennial thrives in moist shade but also tolerates sun and drought once established, requiring minimal aftercare and resisting deer and rabbits.


Growing up to 12-24 inches tall and spreading 6-9 inches wide, Prunella vulgaris adapts well to various soil types and conditions. It flourishes in grasslands, meadows, and even lawns, making it a versatile addition to any garden. Whether planted under trees or in open spaces, this hardy herb will thrive, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits for any home gardener.

~ sowing ~


Before planting Prunella vulgaris (self-heal) seeds, it is crucial to understand the ideal conditions for optimal growth:


Stratification:

To improve germination rates, stratify the seeds by placing them in a damp paper towel, sealing them in a plastic bag, and refrigerating them for 2-4 weeks.


Starting Seeds Indoors:


Timing:

Start seeds indoors about 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area.


Containers:

Use seed trays or small pots filled with a light, well-draining potting mix.


Sowing:

Sprinkle the seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in. Do not cover the seeds, as they need light to germinate.


Watering:

Mist the soil gently to moisten it, ensuring it's consistently moist but not waterlogged.


Light and Temperature:

Place the seed trays in a bright location with temperatures around 65-70°F (18-21°C). Use a grow light if necessary.


Germination:

Seeds should germinate within 2-4 weeks. Keep the soil consistently moist during this period.


Transplanting Seedlings Outdoors


Timing:

Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, they can be transplanted outdoors.


Location:

Choose a spot in your garden with well-draining soil and partial to full sun.


Spacing:

Space the plants about 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper growth.


Transplanting:

Dig holes large enough to accommodate the root balls of your seedlings. Gently remove the seedlings from their containers, taking care not to damage the roots, and transplant them into the garden. Water well after planting.


Caring for Prunella vulgaris Plants


Watering:

Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Water the plants deeply once or twice a week, depending on the weather and soil conditions.


Fertilizing:

Prunella vulgaris doesn’t require heavy feeding. A light application of compost or a balanced organic fertilizer in the spring should be sufficient to support its growth.


Mulching:

Apply a layer of mulch around the plants to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.


Pest and Disease Management:

Prunella vulgaris is generally pest-resistant, but it’s still important to monitor for common garden pests like aphids and caterpillars. If you notice any pests, treat them with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Ensure good air circulation around the plants to prevent fungal diseases.


Maintenance:

Prunella vulgaris can be mowed or trimmed back after flowering to encourage new growth and maintain a tidy appearance.


Harvesting Prunella vulgaris


When to Harvest:

The best time to harvest is when the plant is in full bloom, usually from late spring to early summer.


How to Harvest:

Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the stems just above a set of leaves. This will encourage the plant to produce more growth. Avoid cutting more than one-third of the plant at a time to ensure it remains healthy.


Drying and Storing:

Spread the harvested stems on a clean, dry surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. Allow them to dry completely, which can take several days to a week. Once dried, strip the leaves and flowers from the stems and store them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.


~ seed saving ~


The flower spike will turn brown and dry while the seeds begin to form. Watch the plant carefully, since the seeds will soon blow away with the wind. Shake the ripe brown heads over a container to remove the seed. Store the heal all seeds in a cool, dry place.


Edible Uses:


Leaves are edible raw or cooked. Wash well first to remove some of the bitter tannins in the leaves. They can be used in salads for a little extra bite. Good in casseroles, soups and stews. An interesting tea can be produced from fresh or dried leaves making a refreshing beverage. The leaves are at their best when harvested in mid-summer.


Other Uses:

An olive green dye is obtained from the stems and flowers.


Forage for Pollinators:

Prunella vulgaris produces nectar very freely and is pollinated by bees. It is very attractive to Honeybees and Bumblebees, and probably Solitary bees.


Origin:

Prunella vulgaris is a perennial plant native to Europe but can also be found growing in parts of Asia and the Unites States. In open and exposed situations, the plant is diminutive, while in more sheltered spots it is larger in all its parts. Habitats include moist to mesic black soil prairies, alongside rivers and lakes, meadows, thickets, forest openings, woodland borders, pastures, and abandoned fields.


In addition to being very well known as Self Heal, Prunella vulgaris has many other common and local names:


Square stem, Thimble flower, Sickle-heal, Sicklewort, Slough-heal, Hookweed, Panay, Proud carpenter, Herb carpenter, Hercules' all-heal, Hook-heal, Carpenter's herb, Heart of the earth, Brunel, Caravaun bog, Carpenter grass, Blue curls, Brownwort, Heal-all, All-heal, Bumble-bees, Herb, Fly Flowers, Heart of the Earth, Hook-heal, London Bottles, Pick Pocket, Pimpernel, Prince's Feather.

A major upgrade from standard drugstore brands—sophisticated scent & better lather.
I have been a long-time user of standard body washes (think Old Spice, Axe, or Dove Men), but I kept seeing hype about Cremo and decided to see if it was worth the slightly higher price tag. After using the 32oz Spice & Black Vanilla for a week, I can confidently say this is a massive upgrade for your shower routine. ​Here is how it stacks up against the typical grocery store brands: ​1. The Scent is on another level: Most cheaper washes smell like generic "Sport" or "Ocean" cologne. This scent is much more complex and earthy. ​Top Notes: It starts with a sharp, spicy kick (that's the cardamom). ​Finish: It settles into a smooth, warm vanilla and tobacco scent. It smells more like a high-end department store fragrance than a soap. ​Staying Power: The scent actually lingers. If you shower in the morning, you will still catch subtle hints of the warm spices for a few hours, which pairs really well with woody colognes. ​2. Performance & Feel: The consistency is thicker than what I'm used to. You only need one solid pump to get a rich lather with a loofah. Crucially, it rinses clean without leaving that "squeaky" residue that dries out your skin, but it also doesn't leave a slick oily film like some ultra-moisturizing washes do. It hits a perfect balance. ​3. Value: The 32oz bottle is substantial. Because the gel is concentrated, I expect this bottle to last 3-4 months easily, making the cost per ounce very reasonable compared to buying smaller bottles of cheaper stuff every few weeks. ​Pros: ​Sophisticated, "grown-up" scent profile. ​High-quality pump (sturdy, doesn't clog). ​Non-drying formula is great for colder months. ​Cons: ​Potency: The scent is strong. If you are sensitive to fragrance or prefer unscented products, this might be overwhelming. The bathroom will smell like it for a good 20 minutes after you're done (which I enjoy, but keep it in mind). ​Verdict: This bridges the gap between basic hygiene and luxury grooming. If you are tired of smelling like "Blue Sport" and want something warmer and more refined for the fall/winter, this is absolutely worth the switch.

It smells as good as my cologne.
I never go out without a shot of Guerlain L'Homme Idéal L'Intense cologne. Guerlain does not offer a layered line of products with similar scents. I wanted a deodorant and body wash to match. None of the Old Spice scents came close. Axe Oud Wood & Dark Vanilla antiperspirant has more vanilla and is a bit subdued but works. Finding a body wash was harder. Cremo Spice & Black Vanilla Body Wash sounded promising, but I was apprehensive about its scent including tobacco. I did not want to smell like an ashtray. But when I opened the bottle, I was met with a surprising scent from the past. I immediately recognized it as premium Danish pipe tobacco. Most people do not recognize this aromatic scent as coming from tobacco at all. In fact, it smells more like fresh cured tobacco itself, not its smoke. This adds a very pleasant and masculine smell to the body wash on top of the spice, wood, and vanilla scent I was searching for. The scent only lasts a few hours after you rinse off. One push on the dispenser puts enough soap on a shower loofah to wash your whole body. I do not rinse off my loofah; I squeeze the soap out of it to wash my face, then I place it back in its tray next to the bottle. The scent of the remaining soap acts like incense until my next shower. I was also pleasantly surprised to find that this body soap has a rich lather and cleans as well as advertised. I had forgotten the reason I bought the body soap until I used it.

Intoxicating Smell!
My 'old' shower gel was getting dangerously low prompting a search for a replacement. I looked over recommendations of various sources including Amazon which led me to this Cremo product. Over the years I've purchased just a handful of products that were either colognes, soaps of various types, or aftershaves, which really stood out for their intoxicating scent. Additionally, they might have had the incredible ability to have a lasting effect of several hours. These products stood out in a way that they also were noticed by the people around me, commenting on the great odor and inquiring as to what it was. This Cremo product is in that category. The first time I used it clearly put it in that rare product list. Additionally, some of the other qualities of this product that others have commented on I have found to be true. A little goes a long way! You don't need to use nearly as much as some other products that I've had in order to get it to effectively wash body or hair. It truly does leave a soft feeling after using. I didn't realize how big the container would be when I purchased it, however can now say after a few weeks of using it, this is going to last me a long time! And I'm definitely pleased about that. I guess you can say that there are definitely other less-expensive products out there, but when you consider how well this product performs, it's a great buy! If you're currently reading this, examining products for yourself, wondering if this one is for you....hesitate no longer. When this container runs out....it's definitely going to be a long while....I will definitely buy it again.
