St. John's wort – recognizable by its characteristic yellow flower

St. John's wort ( Hypericum perforatum ) is a perennial herb. It has a relatively straight stem, without leaves and can grow from 20 to 100 cm. It has distinctive and noticeable yellow flowers , which are at their peak in the period from May to September . St. John's wort needs moderately fertile soils, as well as moderate temperature and light exposure. It grows most successfully in areas where the climate is subtropical. It thrives well in our areas and is often found in the mountains and meadows. St. John's wort has several different applications , and perhaps the most famous are the preparation of tea and oil . St. John's wort oil is commonly used and is prepared by steeping fresh flowers of the herb in some type of vegetable oil (mostly olive). The flowers are left in the vegetable oil for several weeks, mostly in the sun. This kind of oil can then be used to care for the skin and treat burns, inflammations or various damages and injuries. In addition to oil, a tea can also be prepared from the flowers of St. John's wort, which is considered to have a calming and relaxing effect.
