Want Black Cohosh
Comments (0)New to forums and want Black Cohosh, Cimicifuga Racenisa (Bugbane, snake root). I cannot find it at any of the nurseries in my area....See MoreWANTED: fresh black walnut leaves and black cohosh leaves
Comments (0)A friend of mine is looking for samples of fresh black walnut leaves and black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) leaves for a study. You must be absolutely positive on the ID of the plant and be able to provide a picture of the plant when it was actively growing (just in case questions come up). The samples must be at least 50km from Guelph, ON. In exchange I can offer pregnant onion bulbils (Albuca bracteata syn. Ornithogalum caudatum), mother of thousand plantlets (Bryophyllum daigremontianum) or leaf cuttings of the giant butterwort (Pinguicula gigantea). In terms of seeds, I can offer Solanum melongena 'Striped Toga,' Job's tears (Coix lacryma-jobi var. ma-yeun), or Peter Pepper. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated....See MoreSelling woodland medicinals? (black cohosh, ginseng etc.)
Comments (5)My Granddad used to do this. He was a real master woodsman. I have fond memories of tromping the woods with him and he was a wealth of information that is regretably long lost to our generation. Have you considered online marketing for this? or any of the many independant herbalists who may like a non-cultivated but truely native sorce? I know my Granddad tried growning some natives in his garden one year to increase his supply. The buyer took one look and laughed at it and offered him 1/3 the price. He said he had no idea how they knew, but apparently to the decerning eye, it makes a lot of difference and they are willing to pay for the real thing....See Moreblack cohosh
Comments (1)They are sending up the bloom stalks now in my zone, and no they don't bloom into September. I think what the June-Sept bloom means is that there are some cultivars or varieties that bloom later. The foliage is about 3 feet tall, and the flowers above that....See Morel pinkmountain
