A native of Britain and particularly alluring to cats, although if you are not fond of furry friends then you can make a nice cup of valerian tea which relieves stress!. The highly fragrant, pale pink flowers used heavily in the 16th century for perfume making are adorable. Medicinal uses include sedatives, laxatives and insomnia! In medieval Sweden Valerian was placed in the wedding clothes of the groom to ward off elves! Today butterflies will hover and nestle on the flowers all summer long whilst the attractive pinnate foliage supports their dining tables. Prefers sun in moist but well-drained soil. Height 1.5m (60"). Spread 45cm (18"). Fully hardy perennial.
