An Ancient Herb for the 21st Century

Herb Robert is an old fashioned herb, rarely thought of today but so useful for our technological age of the 21st century. High in anti-oxidants, Herb Robert can help us to stay healthy when having x-rays or working on computers and smart 'phones as he clears radiation from the body. Herb Robert is Geranium Maculatum and is in the Cranesbill family.

I also like to work with plants on a more esoteric level and following the Wheel of the Year. My course the Wise Woman Way training is a transpersonal course using druidic and shamanic techniques for healing, connection with the Divine Feminine and with the plant world.

My Sunday morning coffee treat! I also have another use for Herb Robert: My garden had become a toilet for all the neighbouring cats UNTIL Herb Robert appeared! Now they go elsewhere. May, many thanks again for all the wisdom and beauty.

[@RitaTortorello]

I had never heard of Herb Robert until I got your weed handbooks a few years back. This spring I started wanting Herb Robert in my life and my garden, so it didn’t surprise me when I was making a trail into an overgrown and long neglected bit of my land, and found a large stand of well developed plants with lots of little healthy ones too. Call them with your heart’s desire, and they will come, eh?

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I think so - they are waiting to be called xx

[@mariecoleman7216]

Thank you Terri. My husband used to bicycle quite a lot around the lanes here and would tuck a bit of herb Robert onto his head under his cap. He said that it eased a headache. I had forgotten all about it until now. It brought back memories. X

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

What an interesting story. I am sure it did help xx

[@mariecoleman7216]

Terri. It was not herb Robert my husband used but betony... It suddenly came back to me... Betony...a different plant. My memory fails me sometimes. I did not know herb Robert helped with bleeding.

[@tennesseenana4838]

THANK YOU! You are educating us about an important, yet little known, herb. I appreciate that you showed close ups of it so I can start looking for it in the small, wooded area of my yard. We need to become more educated about our plants than we tend to be about our medicines and all of their side effects. Mother Nature has provided us with a wealth of healing and nutrients to use that we've forgotten about. Blessings from the US.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Blessings to you too, well said. This was all common knowledge once upon a time so hope it all comes back. xx

Herb Robert showed up in my garden spontaneously a few years ago. I didn't know what it was, I liked the petite flowers. When I got your Weed Handbooks I recognized it in Vol. II right away! Finally I knew what that plant was. My Herb Robert looks exactly like the plant growing in your garden, and not like the pictures for Geranium Maculatum, it is definitely Geranium robertianum, I am in Northern California. Well I do have Irish ancestors on both sides of my family tree, maybe the faeries brought it to me. 😃 Thank you for the film on this beautiful and useful herb.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Yes, thank the fairies. He looks as if he has come from there xx

[@GrantStreetGarden]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden I so agree! Thank you so much! Oh and I found I had Geranium Macutatum growing in a pot for many years, I didn't know it and it has different the leaves mostly. And after flowering the cranebills clued me in. So I have both!! Thank you!

[@karennewbury6430]

Good morning Terri and Lol. This is another video I've needed to watch. I first became aware of Herb Robert from a board game. I purchased Wildcraft years ago to play with my granddaughters. Wildcraft is a game of cooperation, and the players all work together to the common goal. Herb Robert is featured as one of the healing plants along the players' journey. He is identified as being helpful for sore throats, toothaches, cuts and diarrhea. He grows throughout various areas of North America, and is featured in Edible and Medicinal Plants of Canada, copyright 2014, p 222. Although they are teenagers now, my girls still ask me to bring Wildcraft to the table. ... Finding your channel years ago has been a blessing to me. Have a great week, and gratitude to you both. 💚🐝🌿

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Is that the board game by a herbalist John... can't remember his surname. Sounds wonderful - lovely that your granddaughters are interested still xx

I have Herb Robert all over my garden, it literally takes over if I don’t control it and you’re so right Terri…it stinks! I didn’t know the healing properties of it until watching your video. I will be harvesting some later today and experimenting for my very old dog who picks up fleas from the foxes that come in my garden and also my own health issues. Nature has been trying to tell me for nearly 30 years I need this stinky herb! I guess I have to learn to love the smell of it 😅

Good evening Terri, lovely video, so much to see and your gardens are looking good. Yes herb Robert is in my gardens I read up on this particular herb some years ago I have some of pink flowering variety and white flowers, I introduced it to my neighbour she decided it's pungent smell was too much for her, Love it or hate it it's been around longer than we have, much underrated herb and flower. I always say if it was hybridised on sale in garden centres people would probably buy it, but instead it is considered another weed for the bin. Lovely day for the garden. Hugs and Blessings to you both.💚🌹

I'm afraid there are always a few who think they can bully everyone. The College of Physicians in his day wanted to control the market so that they could charge what they liked and Culpepper thought that was wrong so he wrote his herbal - in English!

One of my favourite wild flowers Herb Robert is so wonderful to hear how healing he is , i will try some tea There's tons of Sea Thrift here at the moment It's really stunning . I'm in awe of natural healing Terri just cant thank you enough for your beautiful films that inspire me each week 💛 My partners called Robert or Rob i'm looking forward to calling him "stinking Bob" ha ha ! he is a Biker with good humour it did make me laugh out loud when you said that & much needed today a good laugh ! always a joy to see the Dogs sniffing the air they are Wolves in cuddly disguise & the Cats usually asleep & relaxed , i love Horses & the beautiful Mare & her baby skipping about how wonderful to watch them all 💕 i have been feeling really drained in energy also this past month i almost seized up one day with muscles aches & pains ,made me kick start a total detox on myself , i am trying different Herbs & changing my bad food & drink habits to much less , feeling less achy but do you think there is any negative effects on our bodies from the recent huge solar flares because of the Northern lights shows & is there any truth to that even if anyone knows ?

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Good job your partner has a good sense of humour. Stinky is quite an affectionate term though. 😂😂 Sorry you have felt so tired and achy, I think you could be right as lots of people are out of humour and there will be solar radiation from the flares but I haven't looked into it in any detail xx

Thank you. I agree with your views on things and I really appreciate your herb and medicine knowledge. Herb Robert isn't one that I've used. Isn't it awesome, the way plants (herbs) we can use and need to be healthy mysteriously appear in our yards and gardens. I've had herbs show up out of nowhere a number of times. Those herbs being ones (medicinal) I truly need and use. Cheers!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are right - I think it is incredible the way plants turn up, just as we need them. I always think of Purple Loosestrife and the way he cleans up dioxins, which were only invented recently; and the way mushrooms can clear up oil spills. Nature is incredible and unfortunately many of our leaders and scientists still think they can do better! Their arrogance is astounding. But, lets stay positive and show our appreciation, as you do. Have a great week xx

Hi Terry. Well, this is very timely! I’ve only really ‘discovered’ this beautiful little plant in the last couple of weeks. Always seen it on walks and a tiny bit in the garden but never really looked carefully at it. Checked it out and discovered it’s called Herb Robert. (I’m 66 now, always loved Nature…don’t want to rush these things😀) To see your video a couple of days later is joyous. I was going to check out what to do with it and now I know. I’m not a herbalist so the timing of this video is perfect: going to check out how to make a tea. Love the videos and greetings to you from Ballina-Killaloe.

Another good thing about it is that, when you get too much of it, it is easy to remove because it has small roots. I've never tried making it into a tea or anything else, but perhaps I'll have a go now I've heard that you use it.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Some other people like the smell too - I don't, it smells kind of musty to me but glad you like it xx

[@ginaiosef]

I totally agree, it is always such a pleasure , a therapeutic one, I might say, watching your videos. Much appreciated this one also, in particular because I work with computer and headphones. Thank you gratefully! ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Good timing! I hope you get some help from Herb Robert xx

My guinea pigs love that.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

They must be very healthy xx

[@judithhope8970]

They've never had a problem with kidney stones, which is a common guinea pig complaint. It's such a pretty plant I leave patches to fill wild corners.😅

[@georgekrewz]

What an inspiration you are Terri. Thank you for your beautiful videos. Very interesting and inspiring.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

So glad you think so, thanks for letting me know 😊 xx

Three or four years ago, Herb Robert appeared under my back porch. I had never seen it in this area before that. I had no idea what it was at the time but I left it because I thought it was so pretty. Since then it has spread right down the side of my house. It is so delicate looking with the shape of it's leaves and tiny pink/mauve flowers. Incidentally, I do really love the scent of it. I find it organic and earthy. (I haven't crushed any of it's leaves though) ♥

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

It is so pretty, the leaves and the little pink flowers xx

Good morning! Another beautiful plant to add to my herb journal. I've never heard of him. I couldn't wait to find out if he has shown his handsome face here in NC! He has and I will now be on the look out for Robert! Thank you for such indepth information and beautiful pictures! Please have a wonderful week!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks Ramona, you too xx

Herb Robert is a wonderful herb. I make a tea with it. Apparently it is helpful for throat cancer but I have not seen anything official,

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

There has been lots of research recently regarding use of Herb Robert for cancer and results are very positive. xx

[@garyharley3868]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden oh that is interesting as my brother had throat cancer and we gave him lots of herb Robert tea alongside his medications and radio therapy. He is now fit and well and has been free from throat cancer for over five years

[@6140970]

Congratulations to your brother

[@emilyjanevideos]

Wonderful! I've never heard of Herb Robert, thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊🙏🏼 Would you recommend a tea infusion for heavy periods?

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Certainly it would be one herb to try. xx

[@lulucly]

I look forward to Sunday and your new upload! Thanks for all you do!!!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you - so glad you enjoy the videos xx

[@LisaG-fu9zp]

I love learning new things now I just have to learn how to find these plants or seeds.

[@romac9516]

Fascinating, thank you

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I totally agree, I think everything is provided xx

[@dianewallis8948]

Can you recommend a book by Culpeper? So many options out there. Thank you x

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I would get Culpepper's own book - "Culpepper's Complete Herbal". It is out of copyright of course so there are lots of different publishing companies making it available. You could check a website called Forgotten Books too xx

[@ladyann5778]

U are so lucky to live in a beautiful place like this have a good week 😊

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I know - I am grateful every day. Hope you have a good week too xx

[@bernadette6211]

Thank you Terri that was very informative, I can see it by my garden pond

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Once you go and have a good look you will probably see him elsewhere too xx

[@deanablythe9394]

Wow, I did think this was a beautiful plant when I found it self-seeded and growing in my garden for many years now, I am very pleased to find out from you that it's called Herb Robert, and all its many uses. It doesn't need to be in the earth much at all, it seems to be growing in just the air with little contact with the soil, I found it growing amongst my plant pot collection, which did have some soil in the cracks' of the pots. It seemed a shame to pull it out, but I still have some growing in a different part of my garden that I have not cleared yet. Thank you for sharing this information with us today Terri, all the best.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

All the best to you too Deana. Enjoy your Herb Robert xx

[@WingsofTimeCrafts]

Thank you for introducing Herb Robert. I have this in my garden. How is it best to use as a tea please? And is there a good source for contraindications?

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I don't know of any contra-indications - always avoid herbs in medicinal doses when pregnant or breastfeeding. As a tea, like any tea, chop up finely and infuse in hot water.

My herbs that are wild are just now starting to bloom. I will look for this one. If I have it I will use it as a flea treatment for my dog 🐩 my Sunday morning routine is listening to you and the music

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Glad you enjoy it all xx

[@sams.9745]

I have wild geranium growing prolifically all along the edges of our tree line here in the pacific northwest. I am so excited to have seen this. Thank you for your wonderful videos!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Wonderful! Enjoy xx

[@esabellehine5571]

Yes, this herb grows as a weed here in Canada,thanks for your video, as I did not know it’s herbal benefits

[@user-bo6kr8dp8y]

I am glad I watched this a second time. The plant I was saving in my garden box is definitely not Herb Robert. I don't know what it is, but it is through out the lawns and is invasive the way it spreads. I have Herb Robert seeds on their way to plant. I am so grateful for the lift in listening to Lol's delightful music, while you impart your wisdom, all with wonderful photography.
