Description
When used internally, it helps with expectoration and is beneficial for chronic bronchitis, particularly in older people whose secretions are thick and viscous. The resin functions as a moderate diuretic. It is used occasionally as an emmenagogue and diaphoretic, and it has stimulant and antispasmodic properties. It is plastered on indolent tumors and white swellings in the joints. Hippocrates mentions its use, which dates back a very long way. Little Gem romaine lettuce seeds grow tiny, palm-sized mini romaine heads that are perfect for snacking. In England, this cultivar gained popularity as a gourmet heirloom treat. These little gems are best harvested when they are 6″ tall, and they grow to about 4″ in diameter. They will have formed their soft, delicious blanched hearts by then. The outer leaves are bright green, semi-savoyed, and crisp and firm. For a harvest that doesn’t come in one big batch, plant short rows at regular intervals of one week from April to July. Try some in window boxes or even pots. Recipient of the RHS Garden Merit Award.
