Plantain: a great plant to know
Plantago Major, the broad leaf plantain plant, is a weed to many. You'll see it just about anywhere the soil has been disturbed: - lawns, driveways, roadsides, and even in sidewalk cracks. Because all parts of this plant are edible, the early European settlers brought it with them. But rather than eat it, I use it to sooth bee stings. Just take a leaf of the plant, crush it up in your hands and apply to the sting site.
