Valerian, Homestash (Valeriana officinalis), potted plant, organic
$8.50
Family: Valerian (Valerianaceae)
Hardy to Zones 4 to 8.
Homestash is our original valerian cultivar that we have been growing for 30 years on our farm. The seed is from our own production. Homestash is highly root productive in season, and the activity is very dependable. The original stock came from: England. Herbaceous perennial native to Europe and temperate Asia. Traditional usage (TWM): sedative. Valerian prefers full sun to part shade and moist but well-drained soils. I have seen excellent clumps form, during a wet spring, on the peak of a pile of ground pumice. However, regular garden soil amended with organic compost will do nicely. The plant adapts rather well to a wide range of conditions. Space plants 1 to 2 feet apart. Flowers white in the second year to a height of 5 feet or more.

My plant arrived in the fall and this spring they are growing beautifully. I’m excited to see how tall they get and if they will produce seeds. I’d like to get a good size patch going before I dig any for medicine. I was worried the deer had eaten it away but as you can see (zone 7) the little leaves have sprung. All the plants I order from SMS are absolutely amazing and transplant beautifully including my slippery elm and elderberry.

Very happy with homestash. My parent plants have granted me 5 youngsters that the seeds survived now the young plants are thriving in zone 4b.

Just got this as a started plant last year– grew like crazy and flowered (twice) the first season. Lovely white flowers with a lovely fragrance. I’m getting more!

I ordered and received 3 Valerian plants. They were vibrant (but I could tell that winter is coming to Oregon). I planted them in gallon pots, as per the instructions and put them in my grow tent. They are growing like crazy and I will move them to my garden in North Idaho in May. Very happy with the quality of the plants and the way they were packed. I love ordering plants, roots and seeds from you. Thank you so much.
