Our Parrots Beak (Pedicularis racemosa) is harvested at the peak of flowering, carefully dried, and sifted to remove all stems, resulting in a perfect tea/smoke consistancy.  The material you receive contains only the flowers, buds, and leaves.  This herb is traditionally used in relaxing smoke and tea blends and can be used to produce tinctures and infused oils.

   Many species of Louseworts are found in the pacific northwest, but various species can be found throughout the world.  They are employed medicinally for muscle tension, insomnia, and back pain.  The dried leaves and flower tops are sometimes smoked for their relaxing properties.  Although the whole plant is used to produce extracts, the leaves, buds and flowers are preferred when used as a tea or when smoked.
 
While Pedicularis is known to be semi-parasitic, it is rarely found cohabitating with toxic species.  All pedicularis material on the market is collected in the wild. Our material is ethically wildcrafted by professionals who take great care in avoiding any plants growing near any toxic species, as well as selecting plants at the peak of their flowering and potency.
