Goldenrod Herb Cut & Sifted

Botanical Name:Solidago virgaurea

Solidago, or Goldenrod, is a genus of herbaceous perennials in the aster family with up to 120 species and numerous cultivars. It displays small, bright yellow flowers in dense clusters on top of tall stems from July through September. Deadheading spent flowers will result in additional blooms.

Acts like a diuretic, and is used in Europe to treat urinary tract inflammation and to prevent or treat kidney stones. In fact, goldenrod is often found in teas to help "flush out" kidney stones and stop inflammatory diseases of the urinary tract. Goldenrod is often blamed for seasonal allergies.
