	While the common vervain has flowers that are typically some shade of blue, the ~~True Vervain~~ or Imperial ~~Vervain~~ is known for tight clumps of tiny yellow-green flowers. It is recognised by its brilliantly green, excessively hairy leaves which release a delicate, fresh aroma when crushed or bruised. These leaves are carefully gathered, dried and prepared to release their powerful healing qualities.

	The aromatic juice of the crushed leaves and stems is held to have a calming, relaxing effect when added to boiling water and the steam inhaled. Small quantities, when mixed with soda crystals can also provide relaxing bubbles for bathing. The juice can also be used to create a salve that keeps the skin supple and youthful, and it is occasionally used by leatherworkers to produce particularly soft, supple leather.

	True ~~Vervain~~ is extremely efficacious when treating anything to do with the internal organs - the bowels, the kidneys, the liver, the lungs, and the brain.
