Origin & Lore
Agrimonia eupatoria is a European perennial of roadsides and field edges, with hairy leaves and slender spikes of yellow flowers. Country herbals traditionally used it for wounds and as a tea, and it gave a yellow dye for wool.
An old English verse warned that agrimony laid under a sleeper’s head would keep them sleeping “as he were deed” until someone took it away.
The species name eupatoria honours Mithridates VI Eupator, king of Pontus, remembered for his obsession with herbs and poisons. The folk name church steeples comes from the tapering flower spikes.
Did You Know?
Agrimony’s seeds sit inside small hooked burrs that catch on fur and clothing, which is how the plant travels along paths and hedgerows.
