What's that strange yellow flower that pops up EVERYWHERE?

[@jennastephens1224]

I like the term "aggressive native plant". I don't know how many times I've had to explain that brambles (a genus that includes blackberries, dewberries, and raspberries) are in fact native not invasive, are great for pollinators, and produce edible fruit. They just grow super fast and really need to be pruned to keep them from taking over entire gardens

[@FeralForaging]

Agreed!

[@SnailShoes]

I love the young green shoots of brambles. Eating those gives a little notch to their start of spring burst. Their taste reminds me of those old palma violet candies. It takes a moment of chewing for it to come through the green flavour. But so worth it. (iirc this whole family of leaves is a big nope of you're pregnant though)

[@wildanimus2559]

I'll never forget picking some of these for my grandmother after playing out in the cow pasture. "Well, thank you, honey, but these are poison." 🤣

[@thekingsdaughter4233]

But you didn't mean for her to _eat_ them- just put them in a vase, right? 😄 My son brings in _anything_ that blossoms, for me to put in vases. 😌

[@sandi2005]

😂

[@AnnaBrown-h4e]

I picked a variety of wild flowers and took them to a friend in a nursing home. I was so proud and she liked them, 😅😊❤ I few days later her husband asked me not to do that again, 😮😢 they had tiny bugs, that I did not see, and the nursing home had to fumigate her room, 😢. 😅😂😅

[@YunxiaoChu]

@@thekingsdaughter4233maybe he was worried that parts of it could fall into food

[@shugarysubstances]

2:10 my dad used to call these horseweed. I would take the thickest stems, cut them and let them dry out, and then put holes in it and annoy the shit out of my family with my "flutes." 😂

[@froginprogress8510]

Never seen this particular plant, but glad to know about it. So many important little details to remember one from the next.

[@loranelizabeth9148]

Wow! Just passed a field FULL of that yellow yesterday! Wondered what it was. Thank you!

[@AK-Solution-47]

Aren't those the same yellow flowers from the opening credits scene of "Little House on the Prairie" where it shows little Laura running through a field of flowers ?

[@chillindave1357]

We're going to need all the info we can get! Uncle Sam ain't-a-helping!

[@centheiatrust9153]

Not the same plant but looks just like a plant i knew growing up in Louisiana called bitterweed. Also in the aster family. When the cows got into bitterweed, the milk was undrinkable.

[@InlikeMikeQuinn]

Love your videos they are short and still very informative, thank you

[@FeralForaging]

Glad you like them!

[@RareCandyLevelUp]

I want to say butterweed looks very pretty and I want to say I was here.

[@resourcefulgirl]

Love the info! Just subscribed. :)

[@kittykatz506]

Thanks,again, for a really useful and entertaining video about what’s edible and how to avoid similar plants. I escaped appreciate how you describe the differences between plant families and easy keys to differentiating them. Love, love, love your videos. 👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@FeralForaging]

Glad you are finding them helpful!

[@chevreherd]

Very helpful!!!

[@FeralForaging]

Glad you think so!

[@UhapiBeauty]

I wonder if it has any medicinal properties? Topically?

[@biggumstevens1784]

I really love your channel and love the vids you do.

[@earthisflat]

You should do a video on false chamomile

[@kittykatz506]

Dang Spellcheck! I meant “especially appreciate” your descriptions. 🙄😄

[@ShesUnreal]

At first I thought it was golden ragwort. But I guess they are related 😅

[@CharlieB_P2ST]

Awsome video!

[@douglascooper1987]

Good Info Thanks 👍👍

[@junelawrimore9567]

I live in N.Alabama and I wonder if I'm too late too look for moorrels?

[@geoffkeller5337]

I do as well and am wondering the same thing.

[@Littlewing6was9]

Go look 😋

[@fredflintstone6163]

Eat the mustard leave the butter weed

[@amyjohoffrichter7562]

Thank you. I see my guess was partially incorrect. NOT EDIBLE! But it is in the family I thought.. good video

[@littlebrookreader949]

Thanks! ❤

[@siggisoaps]

Ive been trying to figure out what these are because they are beautiful. Ill stay away lol

[@LittleJordanFarm]

I have a similar one but my lower leaves are rounder as it grows up they are more deep scalloped. Anyways I pollinated my pawpaws like you showed. 🫰

[@yarnycat_crochet]

It looks like chamomile can you do one on how to find chamomile? My grandparents used to collect it for tea

[@FeralForaging]

Doing a wild flower that looks like chamomile next!

[@yarnycat_crochet]

After these are planted their feilds cows go to Market, imagine how many flew like symptoms lead to big pharma and hospitals and money grabbing going and saliva drooling from vampires fangs.

[@DookiePoop.69]

Those ones smell like honey right? I have ones that look like that but have kinda purple stems

[@BerdDog1392]

Great video! I was so excited to see these flowers growing in our back field this year. We moved in a year ago and before that, it was used for crop. So the field was barren and ugly last year. I plan to avoid mowing most of the field and I’m hoping to see other native flowers popping up this year. Also. it’s funny how something called “Butter”weed is inedible, but dead-nettle is safe lol

[@mkogrady6078]

Can butterweed be steeped like a tea and then sprayed on shrubbery to keep deer from eating them?

[@kathywright6853]

Totally love the simple precise way you show the differences and how to easily identify these plants,i have watched a few of your videos and they are all so nice and to the point no waste of time ❤

[@FeralForaging]

That's what I'm going for. :D

[@TrustMeIKnowThings]

These remind me of invasive bastard cabbage, only you CAN and SHOULD eat bastard cabbage to help control it.

[@slitheen3]

Oooo i think this may be what has popped up all over the cattle pasture, especially right up against the fence. My family just sprayed for it. From a distance it looks similar to lomatium triternatum. But then again, right now there's just a TON of tall, thin, kinda wiry looking plants with clustered yellow flowers that look similar from a distance right now here in the eastern PNW. What area are you in, and are these abundant all over North America or just in certain areas?

[@ZBielski]

This is not related but i have been unable to successfully identify stinging nettle. I use google to "assist" my identification but usually it says it is white vervain or american germanium. One in early season is white snakeroot. That really tricked me early this year but im lvl 10 paranoid and wont eat it unless it burns me. Which has had limited success. Only a bit of a rash from one and only one time and it looks like white vervaine 😢. Also they haven't flowered yet so I'm probably just being impatient 😂

[@michaelharris9615]

Seems like St, John's Wort is a look alike too

[@francisfischer7620]

Yes! I have seen it! Thank you!!

[@teresamcnulty8471]

Is this also called tansy?

[@JungleJayAdventures]

I ate a mouthful of this flower a few years ago. I didn't feel ill or any different but I did learn soon afterwards that was the wrong "mustard" LOL

[@adventurecreations3214]

Always excellent, easily digestible, (yes I did), accurate information. Thanks!

[@pixelkitty2583]

Positive i.d. for Butterweed by looking at the leaves. It grows in our hayfield, hubby cut them before it went to seed, hopefully it won't spread. I always called it mustard, wasn't really sure.

[@katiekane5247]

Proud to have a yard full of it, natives serve the ecosystem
