No there are no herbs containing penicillin. Penicillin comes from a mold and that is the only source. There are however many herbs which have antibiotics in them, some of which are even better than penicillin in some applications, (such as when something has become resistant to penicillin), some of them are: echinacea, goldenseal, calendula and garlic.

You can grow penicillin mold and use it as an antibiotic, external use (such as a poultice or salve) is safest as it can often grow toxins which are brought out in the extraction proccess, however the mold itself in its raw state is not toxic, it is the standard types of blue/green/white kitchen mold, and also the mold in some cheeses is a penicillin.
