In traditional Chinese medicine, sealwort is considered to be sweet, soothing, and beneficial for the spleen, stomach and lungs. The root of sealwort is used medicinally to benefit the spleen and kidneys, replenish the vital essence, nourish yin, moisten the heart and lungs, and strengthen the bones and muscles. It is used in treating deficiency of kidney essence, asthenia of essence and blood, lack of strength, dry mouth, lack of appetite, lung deficiency and irritating dry cough, internal heat, wasting thirst, etc. Wash the sealwort, slice it, and put it into a gauze bag; put the medicine bag into a wine bottle, then fill the bottle up with distilled spirit, and seal the bottle for 10 days. Then it can be served.

Besides, sealwort contains various nutrients. Moderate drinking of sealwort wine in winter can reduce the occurrence of somatic mutation, and thus fight against senium and prolong life.

SOLOMON'S SEAL or SEALWORT (Polygonatum pubescens).
Kavasch, Barrie. 1979. Native Harvests. Recipes and Botanicals of the American Indian. Vintage Books, A Division of Random House, New York.
This herb is found in profusion in rich, shaded woods. Many of the New England tribes dried the spring-harvested shoots for future needs; they later taught the French and English colonists to do the same. The macerated roots and rhizomes were valued as an astringent and diuretic tonic. The Iroquois also used the thick rootstocks to pound into breads and ate the tender young shoots as spring greens and food extenders.

Solomon's Seal-

Polygonatum Multiflorum Polygonatum Biflorum
Solomon's Seal (Polygonatum Multiflorum, Polygonatum Commutatum, Polygonatum Biflorum, also called Fo-ti, True Solomon's Seal, Eurasian Solomon's Seal, Drop Berry, Sealwort, or Seal root) is an ancient herb. So strongly did medievil herbalists trust in the power of Solomon's Seal to heal wounds that they fancied that the deep scars along it's rootstock had been set there by the legendary magician King Solomon as a testimony to it's medicinal virtues. It's genus name comes from the Greek "Polys" meaning "many" and "Gonu" meaning "joint". This refers to the many jointed rhizome (root). Many theories exist on the origin of it's common name, all relate to the shape and characteristics of it's root and their relevance to King Solomon. The 16th-century herbalist John Gerard claimed it was a panacea for wounds and bruises of all sorts including those "gotten by falls or women's willfulness in stumbling on their hasty husbands' fists". We've come a long way, baby! False Solomon's Seal is in an entirely different plant family, so don't confuse the two.

Magickal Uses:

Solomon's Seal is an aphrodisiacal herb, an herb of consecration, and an herb of protection ruled by Saturn. Solomon's Seal is an excellent herb to use when consecrating a ritual room or space for the first time. As an herb of consecration it ranks among the best and may be used in preparing any ritual item for sacred use. It is used in ceremonial Magick to bind Magickal works, to make sacred oaths and promises, and to keep them ever binding. When used as an aphrodisiacal herb its function is to amplify the commitment between the partners and to make binding the connection created when their astral bodies merge during the ecstatic union of the Great Rite.

Medicinal and Other Uses:

Solomon's Seal contains a substance called allantoin which is used in modern medications for the external treatment of wounds and skin ulcers. In olden days the herb was used as a hemostatic and an antiemetic. **WC** You can estimate the plant's age by counting the scars along the root. Each year the root (rhizome) produces a new stem that withers in the summer, leaving one scar. To tell the main difference between Solomon's Seal and False Solomon's Seal: look at the flowers. The False Solomon's Seal has flowering plumes at the end of it's stems, while the real Solomon's Seal has bell-shaped flowers that dangle down along the stem. **GT** Solomon's Seal doesn't do well in hot or dry areas, and it prefers semi shade.

Polygonatum canaliculatum - Solomon's Seal


Liliaceae Family - "Solomon's Seal, Conquer John, Sealwort"

Polygonatum comes from the Greek word meaning "with many knees". This is most likely in reference to the bulbous, jointed rhizomes. Canaliculatum comes from the Latin for "channeled" or "with a long groove". Some botanists and taxonomists divide this particular plant into three different species - P. canaliculatum, P. biflora and P. communtatum. The differences are difficult to tell without magnification..

Even though the stems can easily reach 6 feet in length, the plant itself is generally 3 feet or less in height with the stems making long, sweeping arches. It's found on rich woodland soils and occasionally in the open areas of cleared woodlands. Green-white to white flowers bloom beneath the leaves from May through June.

The roots, berries and young shoots were once used a sources for food. The Iroquois actually cultivated Solomon's Seal to use the roots for a dietary staple. The Chippewa believed ingesting the roots would aid in curing back pain and/or kidney problems. In order to achieve its full effect, they believed the medicinal rootstock needed to be saved in a pouch made of bear's paws. The Meskwaki and Potawatami would place a small piece of root on burning coals to create fumes that could revive one from an unconcsious state. Early settlers used preparations of the root to treat hemorrhoids, arthritis, poison ivy, skin rashes and eczema. They also beleived that an extract from the root of P. canaliculatum would make freckles disappear or diminish.

Mount Tai (泰山; Pinyin: Tài Shān) is a Chinese mountain of historical and cultural significance located north of the city of Tai'an, in Shandong Province. The tallest peak is Jade Emperor Peak (Simplified Chinese: 玉皇顶; Traditional Chinese: 玉皇頂; Pinyin: Yùhuáng Dīng), which is commonly reported as 1545 metres (5069 feet) tall,[1] but is described by the Chinese government as 1532.7 metres (5028.5 feet).[2]

Mount Tai is often considered to be the most important of the "Five Sacred Mountains of Daoism," to the extent that it is actively considered to be a deity by many religious Daoists.[3] Further, it has since ancient times been associated with rulership, leading to its incorporation into the imperial cult as a source of charisma (in the Weberian sense). In particular, it was thought that scaling to the highest peak and performing a sacrifice there was a guarantee of the political legitimacy of a ruler.

Vegetation covers 79.9 percent of the area, which is densely wooded, but information about its composition is lacking. The flora is diverse and known to comprise 989 species, of which 433 species are woody and the rest herbaceous. Medicinal plants total 462 species and include multiflower knotweed, Taishan ginseng, Chinese gromwell and sealwort, which are renowned throughout the country. Some trees are very old and famous, notably the 'Han Dynasty Cypresses' (planted 2,100 years ago by Emperor Wu Di of the Han Dynasty), 'Tang Chinese Scholartree' (planted 1,300 years ago), 'Welcoming Guest Pine' (500 years old) and 'Fifth Rank Pine' (named by Emperor Qin Shi Huang of the Qin Dynasty and replanted some 250 years ago).[4]

Polygonatum multiflorum

[Synonyms : Convallaria multiflora, Polygonatum x hybridum]

SOLOMON’S-SEAL is a perennial. Native to Asia and Europe (including Britain) it has small creamy or greenish-white flowers.

It is also known as Common Solomon’s seal, David’s harp, Dropberry, Fraxinell, Jacob’s ladder, Job’s tears, Kokorík (Slovak), Kokořík mnohokvětý (Czech), Ladder to heaven, Lady’s lockets, Lady’s seals, Lehtokielo (Finnish), Lily of the mountain, Our Lady’s belfry, Plieurs dé Jâcob (Channel Islander-Jersey Norman-French), St. Mary’s seal, Sceau de Salomon (French), Sealroot, Sealwort, Sello de Salomon (Spanish), Sêl Solomon (Welsh), Sigillo di Salamone (Italian), Solomon’s heal, Sow’s tits, Stor Konval (Danish), Storrams (Swedish), Vagabond’s friend, Vielblütige Weisswurz (German), Weusswurz (German), White root, and White wort.

Warning – all parts of the plant may be poisonous. It can cause blurred vision, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and heart distress. It may be poisonous for some animals.

Multiflorum is derived from Latin multi- (many) and -flora (flower) components meaning ‘many flowered’.

Several reasons have been identified for the derivation of the common name Solomon’s-seal. One among them is that the round scars on the roots could resemble a six-pointed star known to the Arabs as Solomon’s-seal, and another is that the cross-section of cut roots has the appearance of Hebrew characters. Yet another explanation by John Gerard (1545-1612) the English, barber-surgeon and herbalist, suggested that it celebrated the plant’s ability to seal up wounds and broken bones. Then another reason put forward is that the flower if lightly dipped in ink and pressed on paper (like a seal) produces a six-pointed star similar in shape to the Jewish Star of David (or the Arabian Solomon’s Seal). The star is also an ancient Hindu symbol of supreme power – and so the possible explanations go on ………..

An old legend describes how King Solomon helped the quarrymen when they could not make any impression on the extremely hard rock which was being excavated for the Temple. With only the plant to help him he ripped out blocks of stone from the cliff faces.

A curious belief in German folklore (similar to that held by the English for the cowslip, Primula veris and primrose, Primula vulgaris) contends that Solomon’s-seal is a key to underground treasure chambers.

It was said that painters and poets obtain some of their inspiration by inhaling the flowers.

In some European countries the young shoots have been cooked and eaten like garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), particularly in Turkey. The root and the flowers were considered to be aphrodisiacs and could also be found as ingredients in love potions and philtres. They were included in snuff because of their high reputation for causing sneezing which was believed to be able to ease headaches and other disorders.

Galen (c.130-c.201) the distinguished Greek physician who during his lifetime ministered to Roman Emperors and whose medicinal teachings were to influence European practitioners for at least 1500 years, wrote that a distillation of the whole plant was used cosmetically for the complexion, particularly by ladies in Roman society.

In veterinary medicine the root was sometimes an ingredient in treatments for ailing cattle.


Medicinally, the root was used for treating respiratory ailments, dysentery, piles and stomach and bowel inflammation, as well as for healing wounds, external inflammation, broken bones and bruising, and for treating vomiting, and baldness. Leaves and roots were also used in different forms to ease black eyes. A decoction of root also gained a reputation as a remedy for some skin ailments, particularly those caused by poison ivy (Rhus radicans).

By studying, though I wanted the dwarf variety, I was led away from it by virtue of reading this and that, and so I resolved that Polygonatum multiflorum was the proper one, Polygonatum cuspidatum, the Japanese knotweed perhaps the one, there is a rare one I ran across in a few places as well that might need considering.. will get that info later.

But the dwarf... I'll tell you part of what turned me was Shakespear. In an old book there was a discussion, or remarks that some things he said in one of his books were referring to the herb, but that something Milton said (of polygotum) was about an entirely different plant. I found myself trying to determine "Now, is he trying to lead me to the dwarf by mentioning it? Or is he trying to lead me away?"

And, do I use that book excerpt and Shakespear for my guides? I guess not solely. I read up on it and it didn't seem to tout the most remarkable benefits as, say, multiflorum does, though cuspidatum cures Lyme disease.

But, then there's that thing about what gardeners have said about it... like at Dave's Garden Watchdog site. They say it's easy to grow, and I like the way it looks when I see pictures of it, and they like it too. If it only had the properties, in a heartbeat I'd get it.

So, between that and a few other things, I took myself away from the dwarf variety as the variety of most interest, or suitable interest. Oh, yeah, one of the Shakespear lines was "Dwarf get ye out of here!", before he went into something about a knot weed.

I'll try to find it later.

OK, this isn't the same one, but has the same information. I tried getting it through history, but... I have so much in there and couldn't spot it. This is actually published in a lot of places, but this resembles the book I read (which if anything has to be typed from as copying doesn't work).

http://books.google.com/books?id=autIAAAAI...page&q=&f=false

Here it is on a page I can copy.. and I also found one yesterday that said it was employed (knot-grass/growth stunter), or used, specifically for.. burglary. Something about giving a boy this herb for a year or something ideal for burglary. yeah, far out, I know.

KNOT-GRASS.
Lysander. Get you gone, you dwarf;
You minimus, of hindering Knot-grass made;
You bead, you Acorn.
Midsummer Night's Dream, act iii, sc. 2 (328).

The Knot-grass is the Polygonum aviculare, a British weed, low, straggling, and many-jointed, hence its name of Knot-grass. There is no doubt that this is the plant meant, and its connection with a dwarf is explained by the belief, probably derived from some unrecorded character detected by the "doctrine of signatures," that the growth of children could be stopped by a diet of Knot-grass. Steevens quotes Beaumont and Fletcher to this effect, and this will probably explain the epithet "hindering." But there may be another explanation. Johnston tells us that in the north, "being difficult to cut in the harvest time, or to pull in the process of weeding, it has obtained the sobriquet of the Deil's-lingels." From this it may well be called "hindering," just as the Ononis, from the same habit of catching the plough and harrow, has obtained the prettier name of "Rest-harrow."

But though Shakespeare's Knot-grass is undoubtedly the Polygonum, yet the name was also given to another plant, for this cannot be the plant mentioned by Milton—
"The chewing flocks
Had ta'en their supper on the savoury herb
Of Knot-grass dew-besprent."—Comus.

In this case it must be one of the pasture Grasses, and may be Agrostis stolonifera, as it is said to be in Aubrey's "Natural History of Wilts" (Dr. Prior).

http://www.gutenberg.org/files/28407/28407-h/28407-h.htm

What is missing from the book excerpt I'd read and couldn't find again is above the references from Shakespeare (from Midsummer's Night's Dream) and Milton there was a bit about ... 'before it happened (the event) she stood straight and tall. After it happened she bent over prostrate... something like that. It was another clue that the 'bent over' growth pattern of sealwort, solomon's seal, is /was... what that particular passage was about. I really wish I could find it again and it was mysterious as to what the event might have been.

Polygonatum hybridum

“From a many-jointed, thick rootstock a single graceful curved stem arises each spring, withers after fruiting, and leaves a round scar, whose outlines suggested to the fanciful man who named the genus the seal of Israel's wise king.

History and Traditions & Folklore


Young shoots and leaves can be boiled and eaten like asparagus, while the rhizomes reportedly have been dried and ground into flour or boiled and eaten like potatoes. Numerous eastern North American tribes, including the Cherokee, Chippewa, Iroquois, and Menominee, used plants of the genus as an analgesic or stimulant, or as a dermatological, cathartic, gynecological, and gastrointestinal aid (D. E. Moerman 1986).1

The arching stems and fine foliage of Polygonatum add interest and focus to woodland shade gardens. Polygonia biflorum is native to North America and a member of the Ruscaceae family(formerly classified in the lily family, and is a close relative to the Lily-of-the-Valley.

In addition to the native species, the Eurasian P. odoratum (Miller) Druce and the hybrid, P. �hybridum Br�gger (P. multiflorum � P. odoratum), are commonly cultivated. The European P. multiflorum (Linnaeus) Allioni has been reported as locally naturalized in eastern Ontario and southern Quebec (B. Boivin 1967c). 1

Saturn owns the plant, for he loves his bones well. The root of Solomon's Seal is found by experience to be available in wounds, hurts, and outward sores, to heal and close up the lips of those that are green, and to dry up and restrain the flux of humours to those that are old. It is singularly good to stay vomitings and bleeding wheresoever, as also all fluxes in man or woman; also, to knit any joint, which by weakness uses to be often out of place, or will not stay in long when it is set; also to knit and join broken bones in any part of the body, the roots being bruised and applied to the places; yea, it hath been found by experience, and the decoction of the root in wine, or the bruised root put into wine or other drink, and after a night's infusion, strained forth hard and drank, hath helped both man and beast, whose bones hath been broken by any occasion, which is the most assured refuge of help to people of divers counties of the land that they can have. It is no less effectual to help ruptures and burstings, the decoction in wine, or the powder in broth or drink, being inwardly taken, and outwardly applied to the place
Nicholas Culpeper, 1653
