Description
Tanacetum parthenium, commonly known as Feverfew, is a herbaceous perennial plant valued for its medicinal properties, particularly in relieving migraines, headaches, and reducing fever, which is how it got its name. Native to southeastern Europe but currently cultivated around the world, Feverfew has small, daisy-like flowers with white petals and yellow centers, and its leaves have a strong, slightly bitter aroma. Traditionally, the leaves are used in teas, tinctures, or capsules to treat various ailments.
Feverfew is easy to grow and thrives in sunny, well-drained locations. It is often grown in herb gardens or used as a companion plant due to its ability to repel certain insects. The plant has a bushy growth habit and blooms throughout the summer, adding both ornamental and functional value to gardens.
