Profile for Rumex acetosella (Sheepsorrel)
Identifying Characteristics
Habit:Herbaceous forb
Flowers:The flowers emerge from a tall, upright stem. Female flowers are maroon in color.
Foliage:It has green arrowhead-shaped leaves and red-tinted deeply ridged stems, and it sprouts from an aggressive rhizome. The leaves are edible, imparting a pleasing, tart taste, but should not be eaten in large quantities. The tartness is due to the presence of oxalates which are also responsible for its toxicity.
Growing Conditions:It favors moist soil, so it thrives in floodplains and near marshes
Life Cycle: Perennial
