Mullein Leaf follows people, like Plantain.  Where ever people roam, so do these two plants.  Mullein benefits and repairs the lungs, relieves Asthma tightness and opens up the bronchial passages.  If you need quick asthma relief - smoke some Mullein or inhale if you burn it in a dish - seems sort of weird to suggest a smoke, but it is the quickest relief for Asthma suffering.  The tea is pleasant - and all our Mullein has been wild crafted from a family home in the Idaho countryside near Salmon.  Mullein makes a great topical oil to reduce inflammation of joints.  It detoxes the kidneys and helps this system flow freely again. It is rich in mucilage and reduces pain.  What a useful plant ally!
