Large-leaf Avens (Geum macrophyllum)

It has diuretic properties. A tea made with the leaves can help fight urinary problems,
and it can also be used externally as an eye wash. A tea can also be made with the
roots to reduce stomach pain. A poultice can be made with the leaves and placed on
open sores or boils to help them heal faster (if they are not badly infected).
