Prunella vulgaris (Self-Heal) – Dual Specimens

This vintage herbarium sheet features two preserved specimens of Prunella vulgaris, the well-known Self-Heal. The left specimen shows a complete plant, including its spreading basal leaves, finely lobed foliage, and the characteristic clustered purple bracts of the flowering head. The right specimen, though smaller, offers a delicate study of the plant’s narrower leaves and partial bloom.

Handwritten French notes identify the species, reflecting its historic classification within the Labiées (Lamiaceae). The original mounting tape, warm aging on the paper, and the softened tones of the pressed blooms give this page a gentle, timeworn character.

This dual-specimen herbarium sheet is a beautiful companion to your earlier Self-Heal listings and adds depth and variation to any curated botanical wall.
