St. John's Wort brands that actually contain St. John's wort?

There was an investigation done by the New York State attorney general that found a bunch of store brands of St. John's wort contain 0 actual St. John's wort.
Is there a brand that reliably contains the actual thing and, preferably, still competes on price with the fake ones? I don't think you should have to pay $30 for a few grams of plant matter.

I've had a lot of success with the "Perika" brand st johns wort. More expensive than random off-brands, but not super expensive. Definitely had a greater efficacy than the rite-aid brand I initially tried.

Perika standardizes to % Hyperforin, which is what you want. So its not even about what has or does not have SJW in it. You want the active ingredient. Perika is the only brand of SJW I will use.
