Mullein Leaf is a wildflower native to much of Europe and Asia which can grow almost anywhere. The word Mullein is said to be derived from the word moleyne which means ‘soft’ because of its thick, soft leaves. A Greek physician pharmacologist and botanist was one of the first to recommend mulleins use in lung conditions around 2,000 years ago. Today it is often made into a soothing leaf tea or an ear oil made of the infused flowers.
