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.

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.

Dogs love them
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 2)
Our dogs love these. What’s great is that you can add more plastic (like from water bottles) if the plastic starts to fall out from the center. If you have a chewer, though, these won’t last you long. Our shepherd mix loves these and then starts to pull the rubber apart the more she plays with it. Our other dogs treat it normally, though, and those ones last forever. They also get some decent height when bounced, and they make a unique whistling noise when thrown.

Our pup loves the cronch cronch!
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
I bought our 15 month old Coton several Chuck-It toys on an Amazon deal. He is incredibly playful, mischievous, and ball/toy obsessed, especially for anything that makes noise. He can also be very destructive so I love how durable most of their products are - they’re among our longest lasting toys and worth every penny. We have yet to take them to the dog park, but they’re a perfect size for sharing in play time. And they are keeping him busy at home - that’s a good thing. He loves investigating the crunchy-cronchy-crinkly sound which is a nice change from squeakers. It can withstand his destructive chewing well-being, gentle on his little teeth. I love that. Chuck-It is thinking outside the box with a variety of balls to keep dogs engaged! I do worry about the crinkle plastic inside because it is accessible because of the air holes and it feels a little sharp. So this will have to be an at home toy so we can monitor his play.
