Description
It is a vigorous plant, up to 2 m tall. Common on the edges of oak forests, fellings, vineyards and ruderal habitats. Use in folk medicine. It soothes coughs, speeds up expectoration, relieves inflammation and lowers fever. At the same time, it also leads to water, heals rheumatism and wounds. Only the flower is medicinal, and all other parts are slightly toxic, so care must be taken when picking them.
