Prunella vulgaris

Origin: Minnesota

Improvement status: Wild

Seeds per packet: ~200

Germination tested 12/2025: 31%

Life cycle: Perennial

Also called "heal-all", "woundwort," "heart-of-the-earth," "carpenter's herb," "blue curls," "brownwort", "kalyuth" in Kashmir, and "xia ku cao" in Traditional Chinese Medicine, self-heal is an edible mint-family perennial with pretty purple flowers and a wide array of medicinal uses. Its many names are a testament to its broad utility. It's considered a native species to much of the world, namely Eurasia, Africa, and North America. It can often be found growing on roadsides and other disturbed areas, as well as woodland edges and in gardens. It somewhat resembles dead-nettles, but has longer, smoother leaves and grows taller.

The young leaves and stems of self-heal are eaten raw, and the whole plant can be cooked and eaten as a leaf vegetable. It is also dried for tea and also powdered and brewed into a cold infusion, both as a beverage and a soaking bath for muscle pain. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it's used to treat dizziness, bloodshot eyes, dry coughs, and skin inflammations. It's not surprising the plant has so many medicinal effects, since it's loaded with phytochemicals including D-camphor, betulinic acid, cyanidin, lauric acid, oleanolic acid, rosmarinic acid, myristic acid, rutin, linoleic acid, lupeol, and tannins, in addition to various vitamins and minerals.

Our seed was foraged in Minnesota by our dear friend and colleague Esther Liu.

GROWING TIPS: Seeds need no special treatment, though one month of cold-moist stratification might improve germination rates. Fall sowing is effective as well. Seeds can be started indoors 8-10 weeks before last frost, or sown directly in the ground in early spring. Sow seeds just below surface, as light improves germination. Keep seedlings well watered until well established. Thrives in full-sun to partial shade. Will spread if given the chance.

Kiss the Fae
Format: Kindle
I have to be honest, I have spent the last 24 hours going back and forth between three and four stars. Ultimately, I enjoyed the story and I think that is all that counts. So, 4 stars it is! What I loved, Labyrinth is my favorite movie of ALL TIME! Growing up I dreamed about marrying David Bowie and thought Jareth was the sexiest man of all time. So, I was tickled to read a story loosely based on the movie. And it did not disappoint! Natalia Jaster did such a good job following along with the story while making it completely her own. I try not to give spoilers in my reviews—but—let’s just say I loved Cerulean, BUT I AM SOOOOO EXCITED ABOUT HIS BROTHERS STORIES! Now the not so popular opinions . . . What bugged the ever lovin’ crap out of me . . . and I say this with all the love and respect in the world for the author and all the hard work that went into this book—but girl!!! There were SO many times where unnecessary synonyms were used to the point it would almost make the sentence not make sense. I wanted to shake my kindle and ask to be a Beta reader so I could help avoid this. It does not make you look like a bad writer to use simple words when simple words feel right to the flow of the story. End of tangent. The other thing that was not my jam was the verb tense. I am not a huge fan of present tense, but that is on me and did not take away from my rating or the enjoyment of the story. Just a thing that would randomly catch me off guard and pull me out of the story. Lastly, there are a few times (especially in the beginning) where our MC Lark is awkwardly slutty; to the point it feels forced. You can have a promiscuous character without making her talk about sex randomly in the middle of a conversation. But be warned, this book brings the smut! It is New Adult/Adult NOT YA! Overall, I enjoyed it and very much look forward to the next book that comes out in April!

Wonderful Wicked Fantasy
Format: Kindle
Kiss The Fae (Dark Fables :Vicious Faeries Book 1) - Natalia Jaster I originally read this book before the edited version bumping this to a more yummy book with Adult content and it was well worth the wait. Nadia Jaster has become one of my favorite authors and I have read all her books some of them twice. The beautiful descriptions and almost poetic world and character building drew me in and immersed me in this fantasy realm. Lark is a female who I adore, actually all three “sisters” are amazing in their own way. Lark is adventurous , a free spirit who embraces her sexuality and freedom like a crown. Lark is summoned to Faerie and ends up in the court of the sexy and pretty (her favorite kind) Cerulean, Lord of the Sky (and whom she had met and rescued 9 years ago when they were both youngsters) Cerulean rules the wind and sky and must have Lark solve a difficult task to gain her freedom. It is hard not to fall in love with the beautiful Fae who speaks in wicked riddles that are both enticing as well as seducing. The two are a wonderful pair whose slow burn love builds enticingly throughout the book. Once those flames are built their relationship is magical and guaranteed to melt many panties. Their love and heated scenes are written beautifully. Many circumstances pulled at my heartstrings as well as humor, excitement, danger, loyalty, adventure and romance with a big dreamy “Sigh”. The lore of the Faeries is traditional in many details as well as original and unique storylines. The first book of the series is a phenomenal and enchanting start you will not want to leave.

Fabulously Sexy with Serious Story Depth
Format: Kindle
Cerulean is incredibly yummy, and Jaster writes sex like nobody’s business. But the real highlight of the tale is what she always manages to do: make the story actually mean something. There are themes revolving around animal rights, how devastating animal cruelty is, racial division and derision, how important change can be in a society that thinks it has it all figured out, and how the smallest pebble tossed into the pond can create lasting ripple effects that change everything. I love this author, I love her poetry of imagination, I love her sassy, witty characters, her dark heroes, and her ability to write characters that recognize when they’ve been wrong, even if it takes them a while to figure it out. This book was captivating to the last word. Completely enchanting, as a book about the Fae only ever should be.

i want to give this a 5 star BUT...
Format: Paperback
So, it took almost a month to get this series delivered, which is fine. I was just super excited to start it. But right when I got them and started to read the first book (KISS THE FAE) the first page fell out, then the 3rd page, and I had to tape the binding on either end just so no more pages fell out...that being said. THE BOOK IS PHENOMENAL!!!!! The story line *chefs kiss* the details and the overall descriptive nature of her writing style *chefs kiss*! I am in love with the story (so far) and after 2 days I am near the end of book 1. I am highly anticipating the remainder of this series. But I just wish I could give it 5 stars (for the mere fact the pages were falling out, I gave it a 4 star) BUT DEFINITELY READ THIS SERIES - SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo
