Nature can offer a wide variety of plants to help soothe, calm and cure a multitude of minor ailments. Within this healing category you will find a good selection of herb seeds and herb plants that can be grown as your very own medicinal herb garden, providing you with medicinal herbs and a natural first aid kit that will treat the likes of headaches, sunburn and upset stomachs.
All our plants are supplied in pots ready to plant, and all herb seeds within this healing herbs category are packed right here at our UK nursery. More...
Herbal remedies from so-called 'medicinal herbs' have been discovered and re-discovered for many generations. The natural healing power of plants is well-documented, and here at Victoriana Nursery Gardens we've done an awful lot of our own research to bring you a veritable natural first aid kit to grow in your garden.
Natural healing herbs should not be used in place of a visit to the GP for serious and chronic health complaints, but for minor ailments such as stress headaches, mild sunburn and short-term digestive complaints, there's a natural remedy available to help soothe, calm, relax or invigorate as required. Our listing represents those natural healing herbs that we have used ourselves over the years, having collected and explored numerous written reports on the many benefits offered from these seemingly innocuous (but often attractive!) looking plants.
In the Healing Herbs category you will find a selection of both annual and perennial plants, and we have endeavoured to offer as much useful growing information as possible so that you can choose the most appropriate medicinal herbs for your needs and your growing space. It is fair to say that in most cases you will need a sunny position and free draining soil, either in open ground or in suitably sized containers. Our healing herb plants are delivered in season direct from our nursery as container-grown plants, supplied in pots and ready to plant once received. Likewise, our herb seeds are also supplied directly from our nursery in Kent.
