Purple coneflower seed in Kashmir |
The Jammu and Kashmir Medicinal Plants Introduction Centre-JKMPIC, is a pioneer institution to start cultivation of important indigenous medicinal plants and introduce many from other parts of the world. A preliminary study on cultivation of medicinal plants in Jammu and Kashmir was from this institution. The medicinal plant garden created, grown and nurtured by JKMPIC around its unit complex contains Kashmir’s largest privately owned collection of medicinal plants, spanning over 200 varieties, including rare and endemic medicinal plants.
The
garden is a treasure of herbal remedies that have been used for thousands of
years by our ancestors for healing, health and beauty. All plants in the garden
are carefully conserved for future generations further, a tissue culture lab.
Established within the medicinal plant garden propagates and distributes rare
medicinal plants as a further conservation effort. The plant introduction
centre also nestled within the garden carries out advanced plant study into the medicinal plants in the garden,
researching and validating their traditional uses.

Solidago altissima flower seeds Kashmir |
Goldenrod-Solidago altissima is a safe and gentle remedy for a number of disorders. In particular, it is a valuable astringent remedy treating wounds and bleeding, whilst it is particularly useful in the treatment of urinary tract disorders, being used both for serious ailments such as nephritis and for more common problems such as cystitis.
The plant contains saponins that are antifungal and act specifically against the Candida fungus which is the cause of vaginal and oral thrush. It also contains rutin which is used to treat capillary fragility, and phenolic glycosides which are anti-inflammatory.
The leaves and flowering tops are anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, aromatic, astringent, carminative, diaphoretic, mildly diuretic, febrifuge and stimulant. A good vulnerary herb, it has also proved of value when used internally in the treatment of urinary infections, chronic catarrh, skin diseases, influenza, whooping cough, bladder and kidney stones etc. Due to its mild action, goldenrod is used to treat gastro-enteritis in children. It makes an excellent mouthwash in the treatment of thrush. The plant is gathered in the summer and dried for later use.
The seed is anticoagulant, astringent and carminative. A homeopathic remedy is made from the plant. It is used in the treatment of kidney and bladder disorders, rheumatism and arthritis.
Helianthus tuberosus flower plant |
Tubers - raw or cooked. The tuber develops a pleasant sweetness during the winter, especially if subjected to frosts, and is then reasonably acceptable raw. Otherwise it is generally best cooked, and can be used in all the ways that potatoes are used.
The tubers are rich in inulin, a starch which
the body cannot digest, so Jerusalem artichokes provide a bulk of food without
many calories. Some people are not very tolerant of inulin, it tends to ferment
in their guts and can cause quite severe wind. The tubers are fairly large, up
to 10cm long and 6cm in diameter. The tubers bruise easily and lose moisture
rapidly so are best left in the ground and harvested as required. The inulin
from the roots can be converted into fructose, a sweet substance that is safe
for diabetics to use. The roasted tubers are a coffee substitute.
