The knowledge of some common plants
Since many people don't know most of the plants around them, this is information on some plants that are commonly seen in many places throughout the world
Tumblr media
This is Lamium purpureum, also called Purple Deadnettle.
It's called deadnettle because it looks like a nettle but it doesn't sting you
This plant is a winter annual—it grows its leaves in the fall, lasts through the winter, and blooms and dies in the spring
Its pollen is reddish orange. If you see bees with their heads stained reddish orange, it is likely because they have visited Purple Deadnettle
Tumblr media
This is Trifolium repens, white clover
It is a legume (belongs to the bean family) and fixes nitrogen using symbiosis with bacteria that live in little nodules on its roots, fertilizing the soil
It is a good companion plant for the other members of a lawn or garden since it is tough, adaptable, and improves soil quality. According to my professor it used to be in lawn mixes, until chemical companies wanted to sell a new herbicide that would kill broadleaved plants and spare grass, and it was slandered as a weed :(
It is native only to Europe and Central Asia, but in the lawns they are doing more good than harm most places
Honeybees love to visit clover
Four-leaf clovers are said to be lucky
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Achillea millefolium, Common Yarrow
It has had a relationship with humans since Neanderthals were around, at least 60,000 years, since Neanderthals have been found buried with Yarrow
Its leaves have been used to stop bleeding throughout history, and its scientific name comes from how Achilles was said to have used Yarrow to stop the blood from the wounds of his soldiers. A leaf rolled into a ball has been used to stop nosebleeds
It is a native species all throughout Eurasia and North America
Tumblr media
This is Cichorium intybus, known as Chicory
The leaves look a lot like dandelion leaves, until in mid-spring when it begins growing a woody green stem straight up into the air
Like many other weeds, it has a symbiotic relationship with humans, existing in a mix of domesticated or partially domesticated and wild populations
It is native to Eurasia, but widespread in North America on roadsides and disturbed places, where it descended from cultivated plants
Its root contains large amounts of inulin, which is used as a sweetener and fiber supplement (if you look at the ingredients on the granola bars that have extra fiber, they usually are partly made of chicory root) and has also been used as a coffee substitute
A large variety of bees like to feed upon it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Phytolacca americana, known as Pokeweed
It is easily identified by its huge leaves and its waxy, bright magenta stem
It can grow more than nine feet tall from a sprout in a single summer!
If you squish the berries, the juice inside is a shocking magenta that is so bright it almost burns your eyes. For this reason many Native American people used it for pink and purple dye.
It is a heavy metal hyperaccumulator, particularly good for removing cadmium from the soil
All parts of the plant are poisonous and will make you very sick if you eat them, however if the leaves are picked when very young and boiled 3 times, changing out the water each time, they can be eaten, and this is a traditional food in the rural American Southeast, but I don't want to chance it
British people have introduced it as a pretty, exotic ornamental plant. I think that is very funny considering that here it is a weed associated with places where poor people live, but maybe they're right and I need to look closer to see the beauty.
If you see magenta stains in bird poop it is because they ate pokeweed berries- birds can safely eat the berries whereas humans cannot
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Plantago lanceolata, Ribwort Plantain
It grows in heavily disturbed soils, in fact it is considered an indicator of agricultural activity. It is successful in the poorest, heaviest and most compacted soil.
The leaves, seeds, and flower heads are said to be edible but the leaves are really stringy unless they are very young. Of course, it is important to be careful when eating wild plants, and make sure you have identified the plant correctly and the soil is not contaminated
I have also heard the strings in the leaves can be extracted and used for textile purposes
and that's some common plants you might often see throughout the world

hey do yall want a fun plant fact??
This plant, right? Greater Plantain, scientific name Plantago major?
Tumblr media
It's known as "white man's footprint", and the reason is so cool 2 me (Taken from the Wikipedia page for Plantago major):
The plant is native to most of Europe and northern and central Asia,[9][8][2] but has widely naturalised elsewhere in the world.[9][10][11][12][13] Plantago major grows in lawns and fields, along roadsides, and in other areas that have been disturbed by humans. It does particularly well in compacted or disturbed soils. It is believed to be one of the first plants to reach North America after European colonisation. Reportedly brought to the Americas by Puritan colonizers, plantain was known among some Native American peoples by the common name "white man's footprint", because it thrived in the disturbed and damaged ecosystems surrounding European settlements.[14] The ability of plantain to survive frequent trampling and colonize compacted soils makes it important for soil rehabilitation. Its roots break up hardpan surfaces, while simultaneously holding together the soil to prevent erosion.[15] The seeds of plantain are a common contaminant in cereal grain and other crop seeds. As a result, it now has a worldwide distribution.[10]
anyways download iNaturalist and the Seek app if yall like this kind of stuff i am having the time of my life identifying random plants!! i <3 collecting weird little facts about nature it's so fascinating!!

Macbeth
- Well, the bad news is the list of named plants is supershort: 
- chesnuts
- primrose
- corn (not American corn, but old world grains (I think))
- rhubarb
- senna
Chestnuts would be a decent tree option, a cheap too if you can grow from either chestnuts (seeds) or hardwood cuttings. Primroses are a nice springtime flower, and could bring some yellow/white color. Corn/grains are also dead-easy to grow from seeds. Rhubarb is sold as bareroot plants in late winter/early spring in my area in superstores, and would be producing a crop in a few years if I’ve understood what I’ve seen on Gardener’s World about them. Senna is mentioned alongside rhubarb as a laxative/curative by Macbeth; I would advise holding off on growing it until you’ve done extensive research, both on how it might grow in your climate and if it might interact via contact with any of your medications. 
As you can see, the pickings are pretty paltry BUT, the good news is that some scholars think that the famous witches’ spell (double bubble, and all that) contains several folk names for plants and herbal medicines. Using this site I’ve come up with some plants that would be suitable for a casual gardener’s Witches Brew Garden: 
-Toad entrails = Toadflax,  Linaria vulgaris
-  Fillet of a fenny snake =  Yarrow,  Achillea millefolium; Bistort/Snakeroot,  Bistorta officinalis; Plantains/Fleaworts, Plantago genus (lots of common weeds fall under these names)
- Eye of newt = mustard seeds
- Toe of frog =  Bulbous buttercup,   Ranunculus bulbosus
- Wool of bat = holly leaves
- Tongue of dog =  Houndstounge,  Cynoglossum officinale
- Adder’s fork = Dog’s tooth violet,  Erythronium
-  Blind-worm’s sting = Poppies, Papaver somniferum
- Lizard’s leg = Ivy (choose one that that is not listed as invasive in your area)
- Scale of dragon = Tarragon,  Artemisia dracunculus (or  Tagetes lucida if you want to grow from seed)
-  Liver of blaspheming Jew (yikes) = Mugwort,  Artemisia vulgaris
-  Gall of Goat = Honeysuckle,  Lonicera sempervirens (or your areas natural honeysuckle species; definitely do not plant amur honeysuckle);  St. John’s Wort,  Hypericum perforatum
-  Slips of yew = Yew,  Taxus baccata (or local species) 
-  Finger of birth-strangled babe = Cinqefoil, Potentilla genus
-  Tiger’s Chaudron = Lady’s mantle,  Alchemilla mollis
- Owlet’s wing = garlic or ginger
Personally, I have two plastic cauldrons that I am planning to use for some Macbeth gardens.

One of the finest bases for a salad is young heart-shaped leaves from the lime tree, the very best being from the small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata), which are hairless. These should be shiny and lime green in colour. They taste just like lettuce – surprisingly so – but I think they hold salad dressing better and don’t wilt so fast. They are exceptionally good in sandwiches.
I also like the very youngest leaves of hawthorn ( Crataegus monogyna); again, they need to be a vibrant, new green and just a few centimetres long. The leaves are alternate, as opposed to opposite, so borne along the stem in an alternate spiral, with five to seven lobes and teeth on the tips. Hawthorn leaves are said to protect the heart both emotionally and physically, and are known to be good for circulation. They taste fresh and grassy green and their pretty serrated edges make them attractive for salads.
I cannot get enough of dandelions  (Taraxacum officinalis) at this time of year. Every part is edible and packed full of good stuff: they are rich in potassium, for instance. They are bitter, like an endive, but sometimes more so, thus you need to go for the very youngest inner leaves, again lime-green, indicating new growth. If the bitterness is too much, soak them in salted water for 10 minutes or so. In salads, I am also mad about the flower stems, which taste a bit like Italian chicory (puntarelle) and can be treated exactly the same way. You only want the new stems of flower buds or flowers; by the time the plant is setting seed the stem will be full of chewy fibres. I chop the stems diagonally into segments, salt them well and then dress them in oil and little else. They are very good with chopped boiled eggs and a little finely diced red onion.
Chickweed (Stellaria media) is another excellent base, with a flavour not too dissimilar to that of corn salad. It may well be in flower now, but if it is growing somewhere damp enough, will still be tender. It is low-growing and mat-forming, with delicate little egg-shaped leaves and tiny white flowers.
The wild garlic (Allium ursinum) season is almost over, but in cooler spots you may find unripe seed to pick. These will appear on the ends of the seedheads and are ball-shaped, in clusters of three. They should be bright green in colour, rather than yellow. They give an intensely sweet garlic burst and are particularly good turned into salt (mix equal parts coarse sea salt and seeds), which will preserve into winter. This is very good in salad dressings.
Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) and perennial wall rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia) are garden escapees that are often found in abundance in cities and towns along paths and walls and are excellent for bulking out a salad.
Sheep’s sorrel (Rumex acetosella) is another good one, though you want it growing somewhere damp so that it is succulent. In dry spots, it gets very tough. It has oblong, arrow-shaped leaves and tall spikes of pink flowers. If it has flowered (which is likely right now) and gone to seed, steal these if they are still bright pink and fleshy. Scattered through a salad, they give a pleasing burst of lemon.
The unopened flowers of narrow-leaved or ribwort plantain (Plantago lanceolata) can be briefly steamed until tender, allowed to cool and dressed with a vinaigrette and tossed into a mixed salad or treated a little like asparagus, although they taste surprisingly like mushrooms. The leaves are long, narrowly oval with veins running parallel from the base to the top. The flower spikes are square and the unopened flowers are pine cone-shaped.
Likewise, the unopened flowers of oxeye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare), which looks like an oversized lawn daisy and grows to 60cm high, can be briefly steamed and marinated, or pickled like capers. The white petals are lovely scattered in for some colour. The leaves are also edible, although they are quite bitter and perfumed by the time the plant flowers. If you can find them before then, they are much more desirable.
A better option are the leaves of the common or lawn daisy (Bellis perennis), which can be used raw, where they have an interesting fleshy texture, or cooked, which is my preferred method. The leaves are paddle-shaped and slightly hairy. Once cooked, they soak up dressing in a very pleasing manner. The flowers can be eaten too – they don’t taste of much, but look pretty.
Finally, there are excellent vinegars to be made from creamy white umbels of common elder (Sambucus nigra), the long, tubular yellow flowers of common honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) and palest pink petals of dog rose (Rosa canina). All can be found in hedgerows right now. The adventurous can make these vinegars from scratch, by fermenting the flowers in sugar and water, but that takes time, so for a quicker solution use good-quality white wine vinegar or raw cider vinegar and infuse just the flowers (never the stems) for several days for a deliciously perfumed dressing.
Some of these are may be fairly region specific, but several also happen to be invasive in a lot of places, making them great foraging options. The link contains some helpful dos and don'ts, and suggestions for further reading, so if you are interested but new to foraging, I recommend clicking through.

Unblock Your Comfort: Embrace Natural Constipation Relief
