Learning with LaRee

Mullein flowers and leaves are used to treat lymphatic congestion that results in earaches, toothaches, and even hemorrhoids. There might be some difference in the properties of the leaves and the flowers but I have used them interchangeably for many years with good results. I prefer the flowers for making a soaked oil and for use with earaches, and the leaf to add to poultices for mastitis or sore muscles.
