A practical card deck packed with traditional and modern discoveries to help you explore life-enhancing medicinal plants.

Organised by common health complaints: From arnica for aching muscles to sage for the mind and memory, many common garden plants have provided relief in traditional medicine, and continue to be useful in home-grown remedies. Supported by experts at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, UK.

Packaged in an attractive gift box containing 60 cards organised into tabbed sections. The perfect gift for gardeners and anyone who wants to support their health with herbal and medicinal plant knowledge.

Discover the power of plants! Explore the flowers, leaves, roots, and seeds that have been used for millennia to improve health and wellbeing. Which plants are thought to promote healthy digestion, or have anti-inflammatory properties? Which have been used to treat skin issues or aching muscles? And what about a stubborn cough? Organised by common complaints, each of the 60 cards offers insights into a plant's traditional uses, as well as modern discoveries and details of how it grows.

The box opens with a hinged lid to reveal eight categories: circulation, digestion, inflammation, infection, skin issues, aches & pain, respiratory conditions, and mind & wellbeing, and 60 illustrated plant cards. Endorsed by experts at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, this deck provides an enlightening introduction to the world of medicinal plants.
