Ruta Graveolens

Rue. Herb. Much maligned and rarely used. Can cause a rash if there is contact with your skin and then exposed to sun. Never had that problem working it myself. It's a very strong herb, so must be used sparingly. My favorite memory of this herb, is the burning of it's seeds to make a kind of incense to expunge illness and ward off evil.
