From the Seeds of Change Website:
This camphor-scented herb was once known as featherfew because of the plant's lacy leaves. Used medicinally since at least the early 1800s, it is said to be exceedingly effective in controlling migraine headaches, and for relief from arthritis, psoriasis and tension. Best started indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date and transplanted when all danger of frost has passed. Sow the tiny seed sparingly on the surface and tamp into the soil. Seeds need light to germinate. Harvesting tips. Can be picked as a cut flower in July and August.
