Marshmallow Plant is the original source of the ancient Egyptian confection that inspired marshmallows — long before gelatin and sugar, the roots and leaves of this African heirloom were used to make sweet, soothing treats and medicines. The mucilaginous roots and leaves have a mild, slightly sweet flavor and remarkable soothing properties that have been used in herbal medicine for centuries to treat sore throats, coughs, and digestive complaints. A fascinating dual-purpose plant with beautiful, soft pink flowers that attract pollinators all summer.
