Good Morning Heidi!!! I have to say, that I don’t know any other RUclipsr who is as gracious at sharing the depth of information that you share. So from my side of the country, May The LORD continue to Bless You. Enjoy your day.
🥰

A friend from Bosnia said they use this for getting rid of kidney stones.
Morning Heidi, this is one of my favorite herbs. I use it for digestive issues, and has healed my leaky gut. It builds the lining of the intestinal wall,so does L-glutimine. Anyways it also does help my seasonal allergies. I buy it in a extract,the taste is very woody but has healed me within a 3 month period. I've been using it for a year now.
How do you use it to treat allergies?
Oh thank You Father & praying it will heal my guts too💞🙌🙌💞🙏💞
@hollyslager2883 ,I use a tinture,extract and put less then a teaspoon in a small amount of water and drink it 1x daily. I also use honey everyday for my seasonal allergies. 3 T. Daily,it has really helped me.
My daughter and I use it for UTIs (bladder infections). My hubby had heart burn so bad one day that he went to bed. I made him some marshmellow tea and it instantly took it away.
Good Morning!! God is indeed good all the time! ❤ I’m going to try marshmallow this year in a medicinal garden.
Such a great overview of the uses and benefits of the Marshmallow plant… thanks for all you continue to share! And Yes…God is Good all the Time!!❤
We have a canyon near us that has LOADS of Mallow. We found it in total bloom, it was a site and smell to be seen. Love them.
I got my seeds from you and it did really well last year ,I hope it comes back.
Equal parts slippery elm bark and marshmallow root is a great gut repair tea.
I'm watching this video with my 7yo daughter. We use herb study as part of our health and science lesson so we watch your videos together. The first thing she said was " Wow she's beautiful!" ❤ Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. We really enjoy your videos.
I started growing marshmallow back in 2020 after watching your first video. I LOVE it! It makes fantastic tea. I mainly use the flowers in my tea blends, but I harvest the whole plant as well. I gave some tea as a gift to my dear friend and she said it is her favorite. Thank you Heidi for all that you do. I always learn something new from your videos 😊. God bless!
I just studied this plant yesterday Heidi , in the Homegrown Herbalists School Of Botanical Medicine and Doc Jones said he has had the good fortune of using Marshmellow internally and topically to stop Gangrene. Amazing things God has given us to heal our bodies. A shame many have traded that in for a pill. He also mentioned it prefers cold infusion to hot teas. I am in the process of tincturing many of my herbs and will make the formulas that way. Thanks for all your hard work and diligence to teaching everyone the importance of medicinal herbs and remedies. Blessings , ♥️ from 🇨🇦.
I’m in his school too, such a great guy and school. Hello from NW Georgia, US. 😊
Thank you Heidi!
This was a tickle! Last night there was a an ad. with a lady cleaning some marshmallow root because she had an upset stomach. And here you are! I'd SO much rather watch you than a commercial! Besides, you show us how to do it ourselves. 🙂
Blessings always! 💜
I have this gut diese for over 9 years now & went to digestive Dr.s & none of their medications worked,so I've been praying & trying to find natural ways to heal my guts🥰💞🙏💞
You may also find slippery elm powder will help you
@@kierralowe44 thank you, I'll give that a try too🥰💞🙏💞
I grew marshmallow last year. I collected some leaves and flowers i have yet to use it. I think I'll try it in my tea. Thanks for sharing this Heidi. You are a wealth of knowledge 😊
I have the seeds, can’t wait to grow it
Hello Heidi, thank you for sharing your great ideas for using Marsmallow herb. I usually buy mine dried and use as an ingredient in my hair cleansing mousse. However, this year I'm planting a range of new herbs, including marshmallow. I'm really inspired by your video and can't wait to get planting and trying out some new ideas! 🌱☀️🌱
mine never came back after the first year - then I thought I had hollyhock seeds that had sprouted, they turned out to be okra, yet all the okra I had put out not one came up - I do surprise gardening! The birds help with that a lot, they bring in plants from who knows where.
Another great video full of such useful information. Thank you, Heidi. 😃
🥰
Love marshmallow. I mix it with Mullien, lemon, acv & honey as a tea when I feel a cold coming on. I hv my parents using it now too. 😮
Wow Heidi you are so knowledgeable about herbs I love the way you explain about them too thank you for sharing!
TRYING TO CATCH UP ON YOUR VIDEOS, LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. GOD BLESS YA'LL ALWAYS~
Amazing information! Thank you so much for the time you put into researching and presenting all that you learn. I, for one, am super grateful!
Yes my dear,I needed to hear this again.
You introduced this plant to me.l
It surprised me by flowering first year so I harvested the leaves and flowers. I made oil and tinctures from the leaves and flowers. Hope to harvest the roots this year.
Actually sowed seeds indoors and winter sowing.
Blessings to all!
Great and helpful information. I planted it last year. Looking forward to using it. Thank you
Plan to plant it this spring!
Good information Heidi. I tried growing it last year but was unsuccessful. I will try again this year. I did not realize it got so tall, but I have the perfect spot for it. By the way your skin looks amazing! God Bless.
This is very timely and much appreciated. I am still very much at the amateur level on uses of herbs, but I hope to grow marshmallow and other medinal herbs this year. I sell plant starts at a local farmers' market and I believe there is enough interest in herbs that I may be able to expand from growing the better-known culinary herbs to medicinal herbs as well. When customers ask about their benefits, I hope it would be OK to recommend your channel for more detailed information than I can give.
Yes, please do, that is the purpose of me putting the information out there is to get it to as many as want it and of course getting more views really helps us in return
Those are beautiful, thank you for sharing your wisdom all the time with us, i feel like i could use some of that marshmallow root now.
Love your videos so helpful!! God bless you!!❤
Wow so many benefits!! Thanks for sharing!
Oh my goodness...im just starting to learn about medicinals. I knew that marshmallow could be used medicinally, came across some seeds, started them. They needed the get planted, so i put several in one greenstalk tray! I had no idea they get so big!
It works out though. Ive been searching for the perfect plant to put at the top of a hill in my front yard, that won't need much attention. I think this will be perfect, especially since it will come back every year. 10 ft tall, wow!
I was able to purchase a plant start several years ago. It's still growing very well. I have yet to harvest it. I'm in zone 5 a and we have had temps as low as -37 in the past few years but it continues to thrive.
Thank you for the helpful information on it!
I found a quick cold/warm infusion, got a cold infusion going for tomorrow, but trying a warm cup to see,what it will do for my deiareah 💞💞 Hoping the seeds I got from you will take root & grow this spring💞🙏💞🥰 Thank you again Heidi for all you share with us to help us out, God bless 🥰🙏💞
I enjoy your videos. I've been adding more medicinal herbs to my organic garden every year, and I plan to start marshmallow in my garden this year.
Always very informative. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I enjoy using marshmallow root with a blend of oats , yarrow, and calendula as a bath soak when I have severe skin flare ups. It really aids in adding a soothing element. Currently, I purchase the plant but hope to add it to my garden next year. Thanks for sharing!
I love using marshmallow root in our steak and burger seasoning!!
Hi Heidi, God is good all the time. Hallelujah.❤❤❤
Thank you Heidi. Excellent information on the Marshmallow plant 🙏🙏🙏
I have started a couple plants this year. I do take a statin currently so I need to research that but what an awesome herb to have on hand. I am wondering how it will handle the summers of NC though. Thank you Heidi. You are so helpful and generous with your info and time.
Maybe a discussion with your GP , as most are not familiar in depth with the ear structure, that statins can destroy your hearing ,destroying the little sensors in the cochlea. Worth while seeing if there is another drug for you. 💔🇨🇦
Thanks Heidi for all the information on this wonderful herb which by the way I will be growing this year!!
Am a tea person too Heidi!
I use marshmallow root a bunch in tea blends as well as use marahallow root and stinging nettle tea for my dogs.
Thanks Heidi 😊 ❤❤
Love this plant.
Thank you again Heidi, so grateful for all you do🙌🏽♥️
Thank you sweet friend! ❤
I got my first marshmallow seeds from you about 3 years ago. I almost panicked the first year because they died back, but they came back in the spring. I haven’t harvested any of the root yet, but I have a quart of leaves infusing and I have a quart of dried leaves and blossoms dehydrated and put away for tea if we need it. So far, we haven’t used it yet, but the hair rinse sounds great. Thank you! Many Blessings!
I bought some seeds from you plan on growing this year.
Looking forward to seeing if my few marshmallow plants come back this year. The marshmallow and Moringa didn’t fair well last year but they grew. Insects devoured. them
I am sure they will come back.
@@RainCountryHomestead ♥️
Oh thank you again Heidi for another great informative video 🥰 I got to try & find some marshmallow plant seeds🥰🥰 God bless 💞🙏💞🥰
I sell them along with other seeds so if you are interested, just send me an email: raincountryhomestead@gmail.com and I will send you out the full product list
I'm really looking forward to growing Marshmallow this year. (I got some seeds from you late last summer.) I just need to find a spot to grow it - challenges here are full sun and deer.
I need to re-watch your skin cream video...this sub-zero weather we have been having has really dried my skin out. And now we have ice....LOTS of ice today. Since I don't have any marshmallow as of yet, I will probably use slippery elm in its place for now. Thank you again for the great information. God bless!!!
Good informational video thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Hey Heidi 🥰💞🙏💞
Hi, I use Marsh mallow to help regulate my stoma. ❤
Hi Heidi. Do you still make your own soap? If so, have you revised your recipe? Pls share! Warm regards, Belinda
I do but have not made any changes other than substituting four ounces of the coconut oil with castor oil
Thank you! I'll give that a try!@@RainCountryHomestead
Oh wow, this is very cool. People look at me like I am crazy when I explain the ancient origins of the confection made with "marshmallow". It was also eaten as a pot herb. (I was an obsessed chef restaurateur that would ramble on.) I have a first edition English copy of Larousse Gastronomiquec that explains it's uses and how to make the confection from this plant. If you want to find out how people ate in the past, you should get an old copy of the book. It literally explains how to catch and prepare meadow larks on toast. I'll not go into what they thought was the best part. Just, People where not squeamish back then.
Which I am sure is why the children's song "Alouette" was so popular. Those who do not know what the lyrics mean may be surprised.
I know that song by heart. My mom's family is French. 4 and 20 black birds were literally baked into a pie. @@RainCountryHomestead
This is something really cool, I read about some ethnographic linguists that spoke with rustic people in the caucuses, in Georgia, if I remember correctly, in the early 1900s. The people's formulations of words for specific things indicated whether they were good to eat or not. The form of a word for a bird, fish or mammal, or even a plant, would indicate it's eatability. It sounds bizarre in our modern world. @@RainCountryHomestead
Would this flower be in same family as the Mallow flower? Another great vid!
Yes, it is
I found out I need to get a root canal. Do you think it is possible to avoid getting a root canal and healing my cavities? I have a recipe for homemade toothpaste that uses bentonite clay and xyletol. I have also been oil pulling with coconut oil and that actually released tarter build up.
What are your thoughts on it helping diverticulitis? My mom developed it after her j-a-b, which opened her eyes to natural remedies being more beneficial than needing antibiotics every couple months.
While I have not looked into that specifically, I do have a video on herbs and more for digestive health: ruclips.net/video/QWspFfmDAYo/видео.html
and another on how to do your own research into such things: ruclips.net/video/59r48nUrC90/видео.html
I developed an irregular heart beat from the 💉 my doctor pushed on me. I regret it, very much. God bless.
@@melanielinkous8746 My 19-year old son chose to get it two years ago and this past November, I took him to the ER because his heart rate was 238. I'm not exaggerating. We could see it vibrating in his neck. Fortunately, a vagal maneuver helped drop it by 100 beats instantly. He's never had heart issues before. Oh! And he had to have his gallbladder taken out within a year of his jab, as well.
I'm so sorry you were pushed into doing something without your full awareness to the effects.
Hello I was wondering where to plant marshmallow. You know like full sun partial etc. I have stratified seeds and now have a few plants growing inside. When the weather gets to a proper temp I want to plant these outside. Also there is a deer problem in my neighborhood. Should I plant the marshmallow in my fenced garden area? I live in zone 5.
I want to say I love your videos and have been a subscriber for around a year. Thank you Heidi! I have learned so much from you!
While it can grow in partial shade, it will never get as big as the ones that grow in full sun.
@@RainCountryHomestead ok thank you for taking the time to answer me. I am very excited to expand my herb garden. You have been a great help to me.
Katie the deer don’t bother mine at all - even last year when they broke into my vegetable gardens and ate everything. My herb garden is wide open for 3 years now and no damage to the marshmallow
I use it in your elderberry syrup recipe. Plus since hubs and I are fighting this crud, we’ve been liking the marshmallow tea. It has a pleasant taste and find it helps with the throat tickle and subsequent cough. Do you have a recipe for throat lozenges using marshmallow? Thank you!
Yes, I add the root to my elderberry syrup but I have not made lozenges with it.
Hi would love to see the marshmallow vinegar hair rinse
I did show a couple of photos of ones I made using the leaves and flowers along with other nasturtiums and/or roses at 6:28
❤❤❤
Do you happen to have a video on how to grow it? I'm going to try this year. I do remember they need to be planted in the fall for the cold strat.
Just curious - for the bitter-tasting herbs, you mentioned taking some on a spoon & washing it down with a sip of tea (great idea). Made me think about sprinkling that herb onto a spoonful of honey, then swallowing it with a sip of tea afterwards. Your thoughts on that? Have a blessed day, from central Florida!
Yep, you can do that. I made my first oxymel recently which is an extract made with vinegar and honey and it tastes pretty good
Heidi, have you made any videos on safe, home-made alternatives to the toxic sweets and candies sold in stores? Your mention of marshmallow root cream in place of store-bought marshmallows makes me wonder what else is out there that we've forgotten about.
I don't eat a lot of sweet things these days, but when I do, it would be great to use a natural, herbal alternative.
I have a whole series on homemade chocolate: ruclips.net/p/PLzVtTPDzFPKE7r7qXxHzhCo5kcYbxOJ9-
@@RainCountryHomestead Amazing, thank you! (And I should have known you would already have a series - you are an absolute wealth of information! God bless you!)
It grows wild here in the ditches.
Hey Heidi can you mix horsetail marshmallow root in a cold water let sit for few days melt shea butter and mango butter with infused healing herbs?
With acv marshmallow leafs horsetail hibiscus can rosemary be added in it how do you measure it do you add water to acv or pure acv with herbs?using it as hair cleanser.
I am not sure what your first idea is for or how you plan on using it but I can tell you this, fat and water do not mix unless you go through the messy process of emulsifying and even then there is no guarantee they will not separate.
You can make your vinegar out of anything you want. Since you said ACV, I am guessing you are talking about taking a premade apple cider vinegar and adding herbs to it rather than creating an herb based vinegar from scratch, but you would still want it to infuse for a couple of weeks before straining for use and yes, I water my vinegars down before using on my hair and I go over that in this video: ruclips.net/video/agEOmz9h90o/видео.html
Do you have a trusted company to get herbs from if i can't grow them myself?
I want to start incorporating them in my diet but I'm not sure i have the right places or even want some of the in my garden. I've hear some can take over.
ruclips.net/video/KqmUYFI0cdc/видео.html
This will be the 3rd growing season of my marshmallow plants, and I haven’t harvested anything off them yet. Can you keep the plant by cutting a few roots off instead of digging the whole thing up? Also, is it better to harvest old or young leaves, or just anytime during the growing season?
I find it best to harvest leaves mostly during the early part of the season before it starts to flower
@@RainCountryHomestead Thank you!
What do you guys get for low temp where you live? I'm in Oklahoma in zone 7b and it gets below freezing every year, so far this year as far as I know it has gotten down to 2F ,will the marshmallow still make it through the winter, come back from the roots? Thanks
We freeze on occasion but not for long or as cold as other places. We are in 8b. However, I know several that live in areas that get below freezing every winter and their marshmallow does just fine
Is marshmallow tree a spreader can it be grown in with my chickens and the orchard
While it it perennial, it is not a tree. It dies back in the fall. It does spread in the form of seeds that fall and in the first few years will get bigger each time it comes back but after a few years seems to stay about the same size when it grows back. It can get to 10 feet tall at the peak of its growth before dying back but should be fine in chicken yards depending on how much space you have
I started seeds I got from you but as usual, I don’t have good luck starting seeds indoors. 😥 I don’t know where I can find a plant.
How much marshmallow powder would you recommend taking each day? I have a bag and am not sure what to take
Since I am not a doctor and everyone is going to be different in what they need, some needing to take care due to medications they may be on or allergies they may have, I cannot recommend any specific amount other than starting small to make sure you have no reactions to it.
I mixed marshmallow root powder with water left it overnight but even after a few days it didn't turn gelatinous is the powder no good? I've been taking it with slippery elm powder and licorice root powder for a few days and haven't felt any improvement. I have dry mouth and eyes, bladder issues edema with chronic fatigue and chronic pain,
Isn't it good for reflux too.
Yes, it is good for that and all general digestive health issues
Is the dehydrated marshmallow supposed to have a rather strong smell?
No, it is very mild in scent and flavor be it fresh or dried
Anyone know where I can find the plant? I’m having no success with starting from seed.
I found starting mine in small pots indoors or in a greenhouse to do best. Now that they are established, I never need to make new starts as not only are they perennial but they throw a lot of seed that comes up on its own so I get a lot of baby plants every year
How did you start your marshmallow plant?
While I now get marshmallow plants coming up from fallen seed every year, I could not get my first plants to grow by direct seeding, I had to start in my greenhouse in small pots first. Once established it will come back every year and make more plants through its own seed
Thank you Heidi I am looking forward to getting some started!
Is this deer resistant?
I have a huge Marshmallow plant in my garden that I grew from seed SIX Yrs ago
I now practically have a forest of them. Thinking of planting more along our back fence line then I can make more room in our main garden area by digging them out of there
@@RainCountryHomestead great idea we live on the edge of the Colville National Forest in Washington state and on the other side of this are the state land and we're on a creek was a natural spring behind us at the base of the mountain where's set up pretty good except for at 23 ft in the mountains Canada border
In my part of the world we grow hollyhocks. I understand this works the same way
Yes, they are very closely related
Really,I grow hollyhocks r u saying that these r like marshmallow plant?
@@KarenSmith-ys3sk Yes, as noted, they are very closely related. Marshmallow will have slightly different benefits and uses but they are very similar
I read in one article that common Mallow, Marshmallow and Hollyhock can be used interchangeably. What are your thoughts please? I have tons of common Mallow!
@@kristikey8320 While my personal belief is that marshmallow is higher in certain benefits, yes, they can all be used the same
This was a wonderful video! When I saw the title, I remembered I bought a packet of seeds from you two or three years ago. I still haven’t planted them because where and when to plant them intimidates me. 🥹 Silly, I know! Do you think they’ll still be ok to plant, this year?
They should be
