St Mary's Milk Thistle 60 Seeds-Silybum Marianum Brooklyn Botanical Garden Club!

Description: St. Mary's Milk Thistle Hot Pink 60 Seeds- Silybum Marianum Organically Grown and Non-GMO... Fresh for 2022 Ultra-Pink Milk Thistle Milk Thistle seeds grow easily and produce a hardy biennial that is native to the Mediterranean area and has naturalized throughout North America. It is very impressive as an ornamental herb plant. It is tall and stately with large, mottled, spiny foliage that contains a milky sap-like substance and large, thistle-like heads of rose-pink flowers. Milk Thistle herb plants do re-seed themselves, so it is recommended to deadhead the flowers before they set seed. Other common names for this herb plant are Mediterranean Milk Thistle, Marian Thistle, St Mary's Thistle and Holy Thistle. Milk thistle seed has shown promise in the treatment of liver diseases, cancer, hepatitis C, HIV, diabetes, and high cholesterol, as well as protective effects against liver damage by poisonous mushrooms; however, there have been few high-quality randomized clinical trials to conclusively prove the therapeutic effects of milk thistle (see, Tamayo & Diamond 2007).
