This seemed like a good place to begin. The far corner of the herb labyrinch is dedicated to plants that will ease the discomfort of menstruation, menopause, and other female complaints. My thought is even without brewing teas or reducing tinctures, one can simply sit in the purple bench and be surrounded by sympathetic herbs. Purposefully, the bench also faces the Relaxation Station, which will be featured in a different post.
Herbs in the Bitch Corner are yarrow, pasque flower, lady's mantle, sea holly, sweet cicely, and evening primrose. I've twice planted motherwort but lost one to bunnies and the other to slugs. I shall try again this fall.
The yard art is a metal woman symbolizing our mood swings - at times she looks frenetic to me, other times she appears to be dancing with joy.
