  1. Herbs Etc. - The Mullen Plant

    Share Share Post
    This weed grows on any land, and grows to the height of six feet. There are little leaves like brussel sprouts growing along the stem and little seeds, and a yellow flower on each leaf. The leaves of it if plucked when green will preserve, and if stewed on sweet milk is a great cure for Tuberculosis, if taken after each meal.
