The Peace Garden is made with some of the great stars of herbalism, celebrated for their ability to instill calm. These herbs can affect us in different ways: lemon balm and St. John’s wort are known for helping to lift the spirits; motherwort and skullcap can relax the nervous system; wood betony can help quieten the mind; the soft embrace of marshmallow can feel like a hug from Mother Nature herself.
Sometimes it is enough simply to be in the presence of these plants in the garden. A few minutes amongst the gentle sway of their leaves and the hum of the bees can transport us to a place of tranquility. Or they can be harvested and enjoyed as a herbal tea, a tincture or a relaxing massage oil. These can be wonderful gifts for those in need of peace, or for ourselves in the winter months when the plants are dormant.
However you choose to enjoy the herbs, once the seeds are sown, you will always have a little bit of peace at your fingertips.
Seeds included: Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis); Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis); Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca); Skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora); St John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum); Wood Betony (Betonica officinalis).
All of the herbs in the Peace Garden can be infused in a cup of herbal tea – fresh or dried. Lemon balm and skullcap leaves are best drunk fresh. You can make a tea from marshmallow leaves, but the real treasure is in its roots, which can be harvested in the Autumn.
If you’re feeling more adventurous you can try making your own tinctures or massage oils. St John’s Wort makes a beautiful deep-red oil – easily made by infusing the flowering tops in olive oil and leaving in the sun for a few weeks.

Hello! We are Sebastian and Ben, and we created Earthsong Seeds to share something we truly love; sowing seeds, watching them grow into beautiful plants and enjoying their health-giving potential.
We especially want the seeds and plants we offer to encourage the tradition of the home apothecary; growing and making your own simple herbal health-remedies at home. Looking after ourselves takes many forms, and growing healing plants and then making them into various teas and potions, is something that we find thoroughly nourishing.
