Toothache Plant

$

Toothache plant, recognized for its numbing properties, has traditionally been used as a natural remedy for dental pain relief. This compact, bushy herb, usually reaching 1-2 feet in height, is an excellent addition to food forests for its medicinal qualities and its potential to attract beneficial insects. Thriving in warm, sunny conditions and with a growing season throughout the year, it’s a practical choice to enhance both natural pain relief resources and the overall biodiversity of food forest ecosystems. To cultivate toothache plant successfully, provide well-drained soil, regular pruning for size control, and ample sunlight to encourage healthy growth, ensuring a readily available remedy for dental discomfort in the food forest.
