Add a touch of natural beauty to your garden with Actaea dahurica Bugbane. This upright perennial features ferny, deeply cut, deep green leaves on branched stems that grow up to 3-4 feet tall, forming a beautiful foliage clump. Its fragrant, fluffy, creamy white flowers bloom in late summer to early autumn, rising well above the foliage clump to a height of 5-6 feet. Known for its insect repellant properties, this plant is an anti-infective herb that lowers fevers and reduces pain. Its root is analgesic, antibacterial, antiviral, depurative, diaphoretic, diuretic, febrifuge, sedative, and tonic. Use with caution, as it can be toxic. Treat coughs, colds, headaches, gum diseases, and feverish infections such as measles with the dried or fresh root harvested in autumn. Formerly known as Cimicifuga dahurica, Actaea dahurica Bugbane will be a standout addition to your garden and improve your health.
