[teacher] Self Heal(Prunella laciniata) is a low growing, creeping perennial which is hardy in USDA zones 4-9.
The foliage only grows to a height of 3-6 inches, but the plant will produce an abundance of 8-12 inch spikes of white, pink or purple blossoms from May through July.

Prunella laciniata grows well in any average garden soil, whether it be in full sun or light shade. Water regularly...

Self Heal is propagated by seeds sown in the garden after all frost danger has passed.(NOTE:Prunella laciniata freely reseeds itself if the spent flowers are not removed) Your plant may also be propagated by division in the Spring or early Fall.

I have a lot of this stuff growing wild in the grass - I have cultivated some by putting it around patio stones.

This year I'm going to make a point of raising it.

When sorting seeds, do not whistle.
