The cola herb exudes a particularly intense cola scent. The robust and easy-care perennial, which bears pretty yellow flowers in summer, can also be used in a variety of ways. For example, the digestive cola herb contains an essential oil that can have a healing effect on skin diseases, rheumatism and gout. I wonder if the inventor of cola, Charles Alderton, had already made use of the plant?

USE
The young leaf tips of the cola herb, fresh or dried, are very suitable for seasoning quark dishes and salads, as well as fatty meats and sauces. A tea made from fresh cola herb is delicious and really tastes like cola. If you let the tea cool down, you get a great refreshing drink.
CARE
As a predominantly southern plant, cola herb loves the sun and dry, calcareous but humus-rich soil. Cola herb thrives particularly well when planted out in the garden, but it also grows well in containers. Cola herb is hardy and perennial. As cola herb grows broadly, it requires a planting distance of approx. 40 cm and can tolerate vigorous pruning in spring. Seed-resistant variety.
