I dried yarrow flowers for tea, it tasted so bad/ strong I was afraid to drink it. My fatty liver is stage 4 and I’m not sure it would like that strong flavor,, any advice? I also have some leaves soaking in alcohol, one with young leaves only, the other with bigger leaves. I also have just a jar of the entire plant, my first time doing this.
I’ve watched like 10 videos and I still can’t do hemlock vs yarrow. People need to zoom in more and go step by step going back and forth with the comparison and some mnemonic to make it stick
Good question! Everything I've read says to stick to the wild varieties. My guess would be that most ornamental varieties have the same or similar uses, but it's hard to say for certain. Therefore, just sticking to the wild varieties is safer. Of course, yarrow that is planted by humans but is the same exact species as one found in the wild is safe to use.
Tore my arm open, put a leaf of yarrow in my mouth and chewed it a bit, put it on my tear, stopped bleeding in 30 seconds.
EXCELLENT VID! Thanks so much.
Yes you explain very easy
Yes, great choice for July foraging wild eatable plants. And other purposes. Thanks for the informative videos. Watching from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you! :)
Awesome! Can't wait for the snow to melt so I can look out for them.
Yeah, they're great! :)
Awesome video and thank you identifying it!
Glad to help! 🙂

Good luck!

Hello, Is Yarrow good for a hair rinse? I have heard some people say it is good for hair growth.
💥 Looking forward to your response.

Thank you, I am going to hunt for some soon! Someone said it makes a good mosquito repellant in tincture.
Yes, I've heard of it used for that purpose too! Though in my experience the herbal bug repellants never work that well :/
best mosquito repellant is the immitation vanilla extract. I use it straight and just spritz it everywhere...truely works!
Good job!
Thank you! :)

Is there any difference between wild and ornamental kinds of yarrow in terms of using it as a medicinal herb?

I've heard of this, but never actually seen it, I'll have to start looking harder :)
Yeah, they're pretty common. I hope you find some! :)
Why is yarrow so strong tasting, it almost is to hard to drink.
2:26-2:40....lmao 😂 sorry, I had to be the one to point it out
