Harvesting echinacea for tea is very easy. In this video, you'll learn how to harvest echinacea to make echinacea tea. We've enjoyed growing and making echinacea tea for years. Echinacea tea has many health and immune system benefits, and the flowers are beautiful as well!
The Echinacea plant is actually a part of the daisy family. The Echinacea plant is also known as a coneflower, and grows primarily in the central and eastern parts of North America.
Echinacea is a drought-tolerant perennial plant and can grow up to 4 feet high. Blooming early to late summer, the large flowers are beautiful as an ornamental as well as a healthy supplement.
Suggested Health Benefits of Echinacea
● Treats and helps to prevent the common cold
● Treats coughs and sore throats
● Headaches
● Mild pain medication
● Cancer - Homeopathic therapists claim echinacea helps to relieve chemotherapy side effects
Health benefits of Echinacea and its extracts in any form have yet to be substantiated by scientific research. However, the personal testimony and tradition of thousands of North American Native peoples, for many centuries does suggest there are truly health benefits from taking echinacea products.
