Arnica chamissonis potted plant, organic

(3 customer reviews)

$8.50$21.95

Family:  Aster (Asteraceae)

Hardy to Zones 4 to 10

(Meadow Arnica. Chamiso Arnica) Creeping alpine herbaceous perennial native to the American Mountain West.  Traditional usage (TWM): German Commission E has determined that this Meadow Arnica is interchangeable with Arnica montana for its antiinflammatory effects.  Arnica chamissonis is less elevation dependent than Arnica montana, and yields well from multiple flower stalks.  Planted in loose, acidic loam soil, and given a sunny and moist position, this plant will make a carpet of live roots within a couple of years.  Highly florific when happy.  One of the better herbal bedding plants, as it fills the bed with flowers and remains short.  Space plants 6 inches to a foot apart to get started.

Potted plant, Certified Organically Grown

    Will arnica grow in Port Townsend?

    Hi Richo.

    I would love to grow a patch of arnica flowers but PT is dry and windy. If I put the plants on the North side of my house and keep them moist can I get them to be happy? They will get some eastern light in the AM.

    Might they do well in a container? In any case I will keep them moist.

    Always go to you first for seed!

    Love, Kate

    Great spreader

    Purchased the seeds and grew them out in a flat. Planted them 2 years ago and they have slowly spread to a patch that provides lots of blooms that I make the oil and salve with. Not invasive. Used the oil on my leg after being injured by a bull, really helped.
