Valerian


Another K2 closeup of one of my favorite herbs.  Valeriana officinalis is a lovely old world herb. I think it smells good, but others do not like it at all.  It is said that folks used to cut it and put it in guests' rooms.   After a day or two it starts to smell  'off'  thus encouraging the guests to end their visit.
