Skullcap Herb | Scutellaria lateriflora | Cut & Sifted | Powder

Skullcap Herb | Scutellaria lateriflora | Cut & Sifted | Powder Skullcap, also known as Blue Skullcap, gets its name from a resemblance to the metal helmets worn by Medieval European soldiers. Because 18th century early American settlers employed the plant to counter rabies, it became known as Mad Dog Weed. Today, the herb is smoked and prepared as tea, usually in combination with other herbs. It is also used to make salves, creams and ointments for topical use._______________________ DISCLAIMER Buyer agrees to ornamental and craft use only. The information provided on this listing is for educational purposes only. Not sold for human consumption. These products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration; therefore, we cannot claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
