I have not come across it on my travels it being a woodland plant, i know it is native to north america and the native indians use it alot in medicine but not sure if it is grown in the uk, but i could be wrong !.
Would be a great plant to grow, i will try and source at my mates garden centre,

Thanks for the reply old tree man...........
Golden seal is amazingly strong ,I've used it for infections rather then pharmaceuticals.It used to grow wild where I grew up in Minnesota USA,but has become rare.At serveral hundred US dollars per Lbs. it's being over gathered.I'd like to start growing some.
