Valeriana Vulgaris Var. Incisa
Valeriana vulgaris var. incisa is a lesser-known but fascinating member of the Valerianaceae family. Native to parts of Europe and Asia, this plant is often found in moist, shady environments such as woodlands and stream sides. Its distinctive appearance includes heart-shaped leaves and small, fragrant flowers that bloom in late summer. Despite its medicinal potential, it is not as widely cultivated as other valerian species. This variant is particularly valued for its calming properties and historical use in herbal remedies.
