Planting Herbs - part IV

Many of the plants we grow such as annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees are herbs in the true sense of the word. With increased interest in recent years in continental or gourmet cooking the word "herb" is nearly always thought of by home gardeners to mean the "culinary" herb.

The herbs I have grown are listed below with instructions for growing them. Perhaps inexperienced gardeners as well as those who have not yet had the pleasure of growing these interesting plants will give some thought to starting a small herb garden.

HERBS TO GROW FROM SEED

LAVENDER (Lavandula). I have had excellent success with germinating seeds of lavender giving a four-week pre-chilling period in the coldframe before bringing into the greenhouse with germination in 14 days. This year sown under the lights the seeds germinated in 15 days with no pre-chilling period. 

This is a hardy perennial with gray foliage and spikes of fragrant lavender flowers, which when dried are used to perfume the linen chest and for sachets. Dry easily when hung free in a dry garage or attic.

MARJORAM, SWEET (Majorana hortensis) This is a perennial in frost-free sections of the South but is grown as a hardy annual in the North. Sow seed indoors with germination in 7 to 10 days. Grows to 12 inches; space 6 inches apart.

 Plants may be potted up and grown in the greenhouse or sunny window over -the winter. Adds a delicate flavor to lamb, fish, salads and soups.

MINT (Mentha spicata) This mint is very easy to grow. It is a hardy perennial and spreads by root stolons. Sown indoors seed germinates in 10 to 15 days. It grows to 2 feet and is rather sprawling, in habit. Space 12 inches apart. Is at its best in good rich soil. Fine to use for mint jelly and in mint juleps, lemonade and other fruit drinks.

SESAME (Sesamum orientale) This herb has whitish colored leaves and pretty pink flowers. Needs warmth for germination and should not be planted into the garden until -the soil and air are very warm; about 70 degrees. This would be in late May in our location. Germination will take place in 3 to 7 days. Although they grow 21/2 to 3 feet they need but 9 or 10 inches between plants as they do not branch. Seeds are used to flavor breads, crackers and cookies.

BORAGE (Borago officinalis) This has pinkish blossoms which turn blue like the perennial pulmonaria. It is an annual and should be planted directly to the garden in early May in the North. Growing to 2 feet it should be spaced 10 inches apart. Germinates in 7 -to 10 days. Resents transplanting except when quite small. It is excellent used in tossed salad to add a most elusive flavor.

CHERVIL (Anthriscus cerefolium) Although this plant will germinate in the fall and live over the winter I would advise the inexperienced gardener to grow it as an annual, sowing the seed to the garden in mid-May (in this area). Grows to 2 feet and should be spaced 8 inches apart. Grows quickly and is mature in 6 weeks. Resents transplanting. Fresh leaves can be frozen in small packets after washing carefully. Excellent to flavor egg dishes...

Herbs

Curcuma longa:Unlike with many spice-rack staples, you can get a therapeutic dose of turmeric from food. A pinch per serving is all you need, says Reenita Malhotra, an Ayurvedic clinician in San Jose, California. In supplement form, take 4 grams of turmeric daily.This staple of Indian cooking is a powerful anti-inflammatory. Some studies suggests it works to ease the pain of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It may also help with other inflammatory conditions, such as tendinitis, and it may even protect your heart, given what we now know about the role of inflammation in heart disease.

Mentha x piperita:For run-of-the-mill upset stomach, plain old peppermint tea can help. To treat IBS, take one capsule containing 0.2 milliliters of peppermint essential oil one to three times a day with water and before meals.“Peppermint will cause heartburn and worsen acid reflux in some people,” says Snow. If you experience either of these problems, stop taking the herb.You’d be hard-pressed to find a better stomach-calming herb than peppermint (hence after-dinner mints). “It’s really good for any kind of digestive upset,” says Bunting.

 And peppermint oil, which comes in enteric-coated capsules, is one of the most effective natural treatments for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Because the capsules are coated, they pass through the stomach and open in the intestines, where they have an antispasmodic effect on the muscles that go haywire during IBS, leading to diarrhea and/or constipation, the condition’s main symptoms.

Impotencia

Securidaca longepedunculata grows in the North-West and Limpopo Provinces of South Africa as well as in some tropical and subtropical parts of Africa. It also grows in the tropical savannah, especially in the Miombo and Caesalpinoid woodland.
Securidaca longepedunculata grows in various types of woodlands or arid savannas. Its growth varies in different climates and altitudes with sandy, acidic or rocky soils.There are many different medicinal uses for this tree used all around Africa. It can be used to treat sicknesses as small as headaches or as severe as arthritis.
Securidaca longepedunculata is a tree that is most commonly found in the tropical and subtropical areas of Africa. It is a relatively small tree, measuring 6 – 12 metres high. 

The roots of the tree can be used for treatments to human ailments such as coughs, chest complaints, toothaches, gout, fevers, constipation,impotencia, diabetes and microbial infections.

In a 2008 study two new xanthones were isolated from the bark of the root, and one of them showed potent activity to relax the smooth muscle in the corpus cavernosum by 97% compared with sildenafil (Viagra) in 1.8 × 10 -5 mg / ml. 

Xanthones of S. longepedunculata were able to stimulate smooth muscle relaxation in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, which supports the traditional use of the bark of the root.

Anti Aging foods

A tailored diet can be one of the greatest assets to your skincare regimen, and ultimately your secret to the fountain of youth.It's all about looking to super-nutritious foods that promote cell regeneration, reduce free radical damage, and keep skin hydrated.
The foods that will keep skin glowing and wrinkle-free:
-Avocado s They're a great source of vitamin E, B vitamins, potassium, and monounsaturated fatty acids. 
They hydrate the skin and maintain flexibility.
-It protects skin cells from free radical damage, improves concentration, and slows the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.
-Berries -Berries contain some of the most potent sources of antioxidants, specifically anthocyanin, which protects skin cells from free radical damage and combats oxidative stress, one of the main causes of aging.
-Nuts and Seeds -Both are rich in Vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps to reduce free radical damage caused by smoke, pollution, and sunlight. They're a good source of protein, fiber, and omegas.
-Anything with Omega-3 -Think foods like sardines, wild salmon, and anchovies. They're a great source of omega-3s and antioxidants that work to fight inflammation, reduce skin conditions like psoriasis, and help to keep skin hydrated and moist by forming strong cell walls and assist with cell repair.
