Medicinal plants are essential in a garden and have many advantages for both us and our vegetables. In addition, they are very easy to grow and very resistant to both diseases and pests.

Holly is one of those plants that everyone recognizes for its relationship with Christmas decorations. This shrub is protected in my country and cannot be harvested so it is better to have a plant at home if you want to use it. My grandfather used it as carpentry wood, because of its hardness.
As a medicinal plant it has been used for a very long time for its diuretic and relaxing properties. In the past it was used a lot to combat jaundice. It helps lower fever in a similar way to willow. But it also serves to reduce blood pressure or benefit the digestive system.
It is a plant that you have to know how to prepare very well so it is best to talk to someone who has practical experience in the subject. Personally, it is not a plant that I have ever used because I have not had those health problems.
