Perennial herb, Valeriana officinalis is characterized by its upright and vigorous habit.

Its light pink flowers are present on the plant from April to May, attracting bees and pollinating insects. The plant and in particular its root have been recognized since ancient times for sedative and calming properties and for this reason they are widely used in herbal medicine in various preparations.

The plant represents an interesting species for its development and flowering, also as an ornamental garden specimen, given its robustness at low temperatures.

  • Our aromatic herbs are sold in vase diameter 12 cm (unless specified exceptions)

  • Useful advice on Valerian? Cut it back slightly after the flowering period! This will allow the vegetation to renew itself and the plant to always remain thick even at the base.
