{"product_id":"germander-4-pot","title":"Germander - 4\" Pot","description":"\u003cp\u003eGermander (primarily Teucrium chamaedrys, known as wall germander or common germander) is a low-growing, evergreen perennial herb in the mint family (Lamiaceae), native to Mediterranean regions. This woody sub-shrub reaches 6–12 inches tall, forming dense mounds or creeping ground covers with small, shiny, bright-green, scalloped leaves and spikes of attractive pink to lavender flowers in summer. Drought-tolerant, aromatic, and bee-friendly, it's popular in herb gardens, knot gardens, borders, edging, rock gardens, or as low hedges. Varieties include upright wall germander and prostrate creeping forms for landscaping versatility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHistorically used in traditional European and Native American folk medicine for digestive issues, gout, fever, inflammation, and as a diuretic tea, germander has limited culinary roles, such as flavoring meats, roasting potatoes, or alcoholic beverages. However, due to severe hepatotoxicity (liver damage, hepatitis, and fatalities linked to furan-containing compounds like teucrin A), internal consumption is considered unsafe and banned or warned against in many countries. Modern use focuses on ornamental gardening, potpourri, wreaths, or as a pollinator plant—avoid ingesting without expert guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMature Height: 1ft\u003cbr\u003eMature Width: 1ft\u003cbr\u003eLight: Full Sun\u003cbr\u003eWater: Low\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVisit Roger's Gardens Herb Almanac\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\n\u003cp\u003e* In-Store Pickup Available - Fees May Apply\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger's Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43241984426055,"sku":"lqf1789732846865","price":4.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/5901\/2935\/files\/germander---4-pot_1.jpg?v=1789732851","url":"https:\/\/flatlockseamwear.shop\/products\/germander-4-pot","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
