sow thistle
Sow thistle is a type of flowering plant belonging to the daisy family, Asteraceae. It is characterized by its soft, hairy, and hollow stems, yellow flowers, and prickly leaves. Sow thistle is often considered a weed and can be found in many parts of the world, growing in various environments such as gardens, roadsides, and waste areas. Its name is believed to have been derived from the belief that pigs (sows) enjoy eating it. Despite being considered a weed, some species can be used for culinary purposes and are known to have medicinal properties.
