Valerian, Select (Valeriana officinalis), potted plant, organic

(1 customer review)

$8.50$21.95

Family: Valerian (Valerianaceae)

Hardy to Zones 4 to 8.

Herbaceous perennial native to Europe and temperate Asia.  Traditional usage (TWM): sedative.  This cultivar selected for high concentration of valeric and valerenic constituents.  Valerian prefers full sun to part shade and moist but well-drained soils.  I have seen excellent clumps form, during a wet spring, when planted on the peak of a pile of ground pumice with a soil substrate.  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.

Potted plant, Certified Organically Grown

    I am heading into my 3rd year with this Valerian and I am very much in love with it. I live in North Dakota, Zone 4B but very close to 4A. My Valerian is planted on a western facing side of the house in a small retaining wall. Every year this plant seems to double in size, and every year I am delighted to see it. Both my cats and I wait anxiously for the first spring growth. At least now it is big enough that I don’t worry about it when they roll all over the leaves!
