Plantago Major (Broadleaf),
Plantago lanceolata (oblong leaf)
Plantaginaceae family

Plantain is said to be one of the earliest plants to make its way to North America from Europe as explorers made their way across the seas.
This innocent but powerhouse botanical can be found in the vicinity of disturbed soils - most everywhere! This amazing "weed" is known to have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, analgesic, and astringent properties. Plantain leaf is edible; especially when the leaf is young and tender in salads.
The leaf & seed are used internally and externally in natural/herbal healing. It enriches and soothes the skin from most irritations, stings, prevents infections, and encourages healing on the cellular level.
Plantain infused natural oils such as organic olive oil are used in Twin Mountain Botanicals products such as Multi-Use Skin Salve, Lavender Lush Body Cream, Holiday Warmth Body Cream.
