Lavender - Which i use for pretty much anything from sleep, to meditation, to curing depression.
Hyssop - I use it mostly to bring positive energies and banish negative.
Rosemary - Which I also use for pretty much everything
Mugwort - Which I found to be really powerful
Blue Vervain - Which I use for meditation and sleep/peace

I would have to say mine are (for healing as anything from tea to aroma, and most are great for additives in soaps and other products) These to me are the staples to any wiccans kitchen:

Wild Raspberry leaves
-good in teas for womens discomfort during their time of the month or for those going through menopause.

Sage
-many uses and basic to all.

Lavender
-good with calming (aroma), distressing, etc.., another basic to all.

Mint
-soothing for sore throats, nasal passages (aroma)Congestion, great in tea, etc...

Bay Leaf
-great in tea, spiritual blocker, good with cooking, etc...

My list would have to go like this:

1) Aloe vera - great natural healing abilities.(especially burns)
2) Ginseng - gives natural energy and helps heal in some cases with blood pressure.
3) Hemp (marijuana) - great for crafting necklaces and jewelry, and even the oil can be used as a health product.
4) Rosemary - also great for healing and it just smells like magick.
5) Saffron Crocus - mainly because it looks so cool. It is expensive and for me hard to grow

I have mostly worked with rosemary, I burn it in my room to drive away negativity. I also bathe with it. I make rosemary tea( for brain). But I make sure I don't drink more than a cup. Works for my hair too.

Second one would be ginger for soothing sore throat. I crush ginger and boil it until it looks like syrup and then I mix it with honey (1tsp honey with 1tsp of ginger syrup). It has always worked for me.

Third one, turmeric, I use it on cuts. I make paste of turmeric powder using water and apply it on cuts. It also works for common cold. Also helps one get rid of sun burns- lemon and turmeric powder paste.

Fourth, aloevera- for sunburns, for hair, for skin. I also used it on my kitten, I sprinkled few drops of aloe juice in her water to treat her bowel problem (she had diarrhea)

Fifth, lemon grass as tea
