Yeah, they did miss the uses, and a little more detail on growing requirements would have been nice. The leaves and aerial parts are used for medicines. It contains salicylic acid which is the main constituent in aspirin. It is used for coughs and cold and to relive pain. I've used it as tincture, or a tea when I've had bad indigestion and it helped a lot.
The Irish countryside and roadsides are covered with meadowsweet right now (6 august) . Time to harvest for winter remedies.
