Substitutions

 

St.John's Wort, valerian, and wormwood all have excellent sedative

properties. Unfortunately, they are quite unpleasant to the smell.

Catnip, lavender, lemon balm, lemon verbena, and sweet woodruff -

all of which smell great - have mild sedative powers, so consider

adding these to your pillow if you have them in your garden. If you

use catnip or valerian in your herbal mixture and share your home

with cats, watch out for your pillow: Cats love these herbs!

Substitutes:

 

 

As for other substitutions you might find those below of use.

 

Helitrope - use jasmine flowers, in smaller amount (about half as

much)

Mimosa - use equal parts Orange blossoms and Jasmine

Lilac - use equal parts Linden flowers and Orange blossoms

French Marigold - use any other true marigold flower, but don't

substitute 'pot marigold' (calendula). These are two different

species and substitution would not give you the same results.
