Home›Herbs›Part used›LeafBrowse ByLeafThis page groups plants by which part of them is actually used. Wikipedia notes that herbalists hold that plants "produce beneficial phytochemicals, often extracted from roots or leaves, that can be used in medicine." Browsing by part used lets a visitor see whether a plant's root, leaf, bark or seed is the part tradition actually calls for.FactsLeafSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedPlants 1LeafFilter Results27 entriesElement CorrespondenceAllAir (4)Earth (3)Fire (8)Water (8)Origin RegionAllBrazil (1)Caucasus (2)Europe (13)Indian Subcontinent (1)Mediterranean Basin (4)Mexico (1)North Africa (5)North America (1)The Andes (1)Western Asia (9)Western Europe (2)Traditional AilmentsAllBark comforts the cold stomach and stays nausea (1)Boiled leaves and juice used to loosen the belly (1)Juice used for fluxes and hot inflamed sores (1)Leaves and flowers used for the chest and lungs (1)Leaves used to heal running sores, burns, and ulcers (1)Oil rubbed on aching joints to ease pain and inflammation (1)Poison relaxes spasm and stills pain, used with care (1)Used for the head and brain, faintness, and the heart (1)Used for wounds and hurts of the sinews and nerves (1)Used to cheer the heart and drive away melancholy (1)Used to cleanse the blood and guard against scurvy (1)Used to clear the chest and lungs of phlegm (1)Used to comfort a weak stomach and dissolve bruised blood (1)Used to ease the chest and comfort the stomach (1)Used to heal wounds and soothe the ulcered gut (1)Used to loosen phlegm and ease the cough (1)Used to stay fluxes and comfort the stomach and heart (1)Used to strengthen a weak stomach and move the appetite (1)Used to strengthen the nerves and ease headache (1)Used to strengthen the womb and ease its pains (1)Used with care to still spasm, pain, and madness (1)Ruling PlanetAllJupiter (5)Mars (2)Mercury (1)Moon (3)Saturn (6)Sun (4)Venus (4)Native To RegionAllCaucasus (2)Europe (13)Indian Subcontinent (1)Mediterranean Basin (4)Mesoamerica (1)North Africa (5)North America (1)The Andes (1)Western Asia (9)Western Europe (2)Used In PracticeAllAugury (1)Ethnobotany (3)Herbalism (Wortcunning) (4)Plant Medicine (Entheogenic Practice) (3)Western Astrology (1)Witchcraft (2)Ritually Used InAllBritish Isles and Gaul (6)China (1)Eastern Europe (1)Global (Cross-Cultural) (1)Greece (4)Iberia and Southern France (1)Indian Subcontinent (2)Italy (3)Japan (1)Mesoamerica (1)The Andes (2)The Levant (1)Western Europe (8)Sacred ToAllPachamama (1)Shiva (1)Humoral temperamentAllAiry and quickening to the mind, nerves, and lungs (1)Cooling, moistening, and soothing to the fluids of the body (3)Expansive, nourishing, and kindly to the liver and the blood (5)Hot, martial, and stimulating, a herb of heat and iron (2)Soothing, softening, and beautifying (4)Warming, vitalising, and heart-strengthening (4)Plant kindAllAnnual Herbs (2)Biennial Herbs (3)Evergreen Shrubby Herbs (5)Perennial Herbs (12)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 27AngelicaLeafBasilLeafBelladonnaLeafBorageLeafCabbageLeafCannabisLeafChervilLeafCinnamonLeafCocaLeafComfreyLeafDaturaLeafFeverfewLeafHorehoundLeafHyssopLeafIvyLeafMeadowsweetLeafMugwortLeafMulleinLeafPlantainLeafRosemaryLeafSageLeafSalvia DivinorumLeafSt Johns WortLeafVervainLeafWatercressLeafWintergreenLeafWormwoodLeafSources1.
