I have St. John's Wort. How many do you need? What do you have to trade? Check my trade page to see what I want.

That is very lovely. But like you said, it looks a lot taller than the plant I saw in her garden, and the flowers look bigger too. Also, the frondosum seems to grow from one main stem, and the plant that I saw had many stems growing from the ground, something like a small spirea. Also, if it's a cultivar, it would have to be an older one. She told me that she's had it for a *long* time; she got it from her mother who is probably long passed away. I hope it doesn't have brown flowers hanging on as you describe. That's one of the *many* things that I so dislike about Bradford pear.

St. Johns Wort (Hypericum perforatum) is a weed here in the Pacific NW (I am constantly pulling it here in my Portland garden). You should be able to find it easily if you just take a walk. The defining quality of the plant is the leaves that when held up to light look as though someone has put pinholes in them (perforated them). The stems this time of year are reddish and there may still be some blooms showing. Be aware that this plant can become invasive.

You might check out this link about getting your page set up. It's a good place to start. Can I ask...what do you do with Motherwort or do you just like it's look? Do you like the medicinal value? I'll have to look and see if I can find one for you. I had one last year, but I'd like to keep it. If I have another volunteer I'll message you. Can you set up your messaging? I was reading about motherwort that it's been used for depression, but it's hard to get someone to take it because it tastes so bitter!
