I love all your videos. Never stop!

[@lukeweaver9287]

Thanks for this. Still appreciate the class I took a few years back and still learning from your great information. Blue Porterweed has always been a favorite.

[@willymags123]

Thank you Deane. I seldom comment but I always watch your videos.

Planted one of these a few years ago. I never knew it was edible ( the blooms do taste like portobello mushroom!)

[@Countrybygrace72]

We have these plants the bees and butterflies love them

The music is entrancing.

And I agree that drunk botanists don't help us.

Good morning Eattheweeds, Thank you for the video. Do you recommend any good tropical wild edible book?

[@CarlienVelland]

We call this rat tail in Suriname 🇸🇷 good to drink as thee for fever

[@bluemoon8268]

… can you please comment on how to propagate from existing plants ? … I have the tall variety growing in pots and would like to use cuttings or seeds to naturalize in a corner of my property … THANK YOU

[@bluegreyfogg]

Did you ever get to do this? I was thinking, try everything, from rioting cuttings in water to actually bringing some home with the roots.

[@bluemoon8268]

@@bluegreyfogg … I saved some seeds which I plan to sow … 🤞🏻… hopefully they will germinate !

[@bluegreyfogg]

Thank you

It's always interesting to watch your videos and listen to you explain what you've learned about various botanical things. The emissions from the kitchen sink eluded my understanding 🤷‍♂️ May I suggest adding a link in the description of your videos, to your forum?

[@EatTheWeeds]

Like many plants it was used to treat nearly every human ailment. I was being facetious.

[@ScottWConvid19]
