Description

Common figwort (Scrophularia nodosa) is a common European weed that is frequently found in ditches, roadsides, and hedgerows. We enjoy its funny brown-yellow flowers and the benefits it offers to pollinators. Moths, wasps, and hummingbirds especially love the tubular blooms. 

Figwort has been used in herbal medicine for centuries. Today, this perennial is used to ease skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis
