Description
Organically grown annual plant, which readily self seeds. We do not use any herbicides or pesticides on our plants which makes them ideal for animal sensory gardens, and wildlife gardens. We specialise in growing plants for self-selection by animals (zoopharmacognosy) whereby your companion animal makes use of the plant's medicinal properties for their health and well-being. Some benefits may include: *being selected for its mucilaginous qualities *the seeds contain linolenic acid which is felt to support heart health. NOTE - It should be noted the leaves contain unsaturated PAs (pyrrolizidine alkaloids) which can affect the liver, more so with long term use and in high quantity, but as a precaution should be avoided with animals who have pre-existing liver disease. Additionally, we always recommend further investigation to ensure there are no contraindications with any medication or conditions your animal may have, as well as offering alongside other choices, and noting this does not replace appropriate veterinary care. The leaves can be also be used to make a natural fertiliser: Remove the leaves and add to a bucket of water. Ensure they are fully submerged. Cover and steep for about 2 weeks. Drain off the fluid into bottles. Dilute 1:10 (1 part fertiliser:10 parts water) and use weekly.
