Pale-flowered licorice is endowed with very valuable medicinal properties, while for medicinal purposes it is recommended to use the roots of this plant.
The presence of such valuable medicinal properties should be explained by the content of coumarins, triterpene saponins, pterocarpans, flavonoids and the following organic acids in the roots of this plant: tartaric, citric, succinic, fumaric and malic acids. Also, the roots contain triterpenoids in the hydrolyzate: echinate, meristotropic and macedonic acids. In the aerial part of licorice lavender are flavonoids and coumarins, the leaves contain ascorbic acid, flavonoids kaempferol, apigenin and querzuetin, as well as the following organic acids: malonic, tartaric, fumaric, citric, oxalic, gluconic, succinic and malic acids.

As for traditional medicine, here pale-flowered licorice has become quite widespread. This plant is used for colds, various stomach diseases, and is also used as an anthelmintic agent.

Pale Meadow Moth - The Enemy Of Umbrella Crops
The pale meadow moth is found literally everywhere. This parasite can be encountered especially often in central Russia and the Caucasus. It mainly damages the testes of carrots and parsnips, as well as some other umbrella crops. The result of its harmful activity is a noticeable decrease in the quality of seeds and a significant decrease in yield. Harmful caterpillars damage the testes of umbelliferous plants quite badly - they not only gnaw fragile pedicels, but also
Fighting The Pale-footed Gooseberry Sawfly
The pale-footed gooseberry sawfly, which lives almost everywhere, in addition to the gooseberry, often damages golden, red and white currants. The damage to the berry harvest from its destructive activity can be very significant, therefore it is extremely important to timely identify the appearance of this garden enemy on the site and begin to fight it
