Thx for sharing your knowledge with us! I noticed that you have terrific books on your website. These flowers are everywhere! As a teenager, I used to pick off the tiny blue-purple blooms, flatten them in a book, dry them, and acrylic-paste them on a canvas for dried flower art. When flattened, they look like birds flying in the air!😄

The BEST video on the subject I've seen! Thank you so much for concise and (of course) useful presentation. Well done:) Can you, if you've not already, do one a wild lettuce? SO many variations it's difficult to discern properly - safely! Cheers!

I need to start a garden with all these plants in them. Note to self: find plants, save seeds. Lol. Thanks again. 🙂👍

Thank you for your response to my question .Very much appreciated . Here's a few more question . Would it be possible to see what those base leaves look like ? Can you use the root, and the base leaves of the plant ? Thank you .

I thought I was looking at this plant today . Does it have a rosetta set of leaves at the base (circle of leaves sitting on the ground) of the plant ? Thank you 💕

The problem is most pull it as a weed and it never gets to the flower stage. I believe I did that last year. I have a flower bed where it’s growing like a carpet. At least that’s what my plant app says it is.

You should rename the title facts about self heal because idk if you helped me identify it.
