BLACK EYED SUSAN - These beautiful, happy flowers do well in full sun and will grow in just about any soil type. It is said to repel insect when planted with feverfew, licorice, or hyssop. Black-eyes Susans attract birds of many kinds into the garden. Roots may be dug in spring or fall. Leaves may be gathered by handpicking or with snips any time. Used mainly as a herbal diuretic so should NOT be used in pregnancy. It is also used occasionally to support heart health and for women's health concerns. It is used as an Infusion or a traditional tincture.BEWARE: This plant can be toxic to your pets!
