Hi Anne!! I am an herbalist growing a food forest with all kinds of medicinal plants as an understory, so your book sounds right up my alley.  Going on my to buy list now!  

Some of the medicinals I am growing are elderberry (grows wild here), elecampane, echinacea, bee balm, mullein and Greek mullein, roselle hibiscus, German and Roman chamomile, meadowsweet, marshmallow, yellow root, yarrow, holy basil (2 kinds planted and 2 more to go in soon if I can find room!), calendula, black cohosh, blackhaw, hawthorn, Black cherry (grows wild), ashwaganda, wild and garden roses, stinging nettles, Solomon’s seal, rabbit tobacco, pleurisy root, anise hyssop, rattlesnake master, blue vervain, gotu kola, comfrey, Chinese and European motherwort, mint, mugwort, passionflower, chickweed, dandelion, goldenseal, jewelweed, sweet gum (grows wild), black walnut (wild), red clover, skullcap, Saint John’s wort, goldenrod (wild), plantain (wild), creeping thyme—that’s all I can think of for now but there are probably others I’m forgetting.  I try to get any herbal or gardening book that catches my eye and yours combines two favorites.  Can’t wait to check it out!
