Sun: Full sun to part shade
Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile; adaptable once established
Height: 2–5 feet
Bloom: June–September
A tall, hardy perennial herb with deeply divided leaves and small pink flowers clustered around the stems. Motherwort has a long history in European herbal traditions, where the flowering tops have been used in preparations traditionally associated with the heart, circulation, and menstrual health. Its name reflects its longstanding use as a women’s herb. The flowers are visited by bees and other pollinators, and its upright form adds structure to an herb garden or perennial planting.
