I hope that you know, you can eat Dandelions (the whole plant) for good nourishment as well. As with Sheep Sorrel, try picking the 'young' leaves to eat...they are less bitter :>) When boiled, you can pour off the 'first water' then boil them again to reduce bitterness. They are safe to consume regularly in that way.
The longer you cook them though, reduces some vitamin content. The roots of dandelion make for a good tonic, as a tea. Just don't pick herbs where you know or suspect that no chemicals have been sprayed on them or near them, like insecticides.
Again thks for the good info . And i am far from farmlands or even houses .. this plot is not sprayed on for years . Just had some neigbours come by .. welcome in town . They gave some nice info on the plot . I know now my cane is not olive but pear .. two whole trees are on this land . Luck comes when one has patience . Even a invite for coffee was made and hands where shaken . :-)
PEAR...?!?!?!? Then you should soon have 'tiny' little fruits growing about the 'size of peas'. Unless of course conditions are right, and the trees were at least recently pruned and cared for properly :>)
Maybe you might get lucky and have some normal size pears sprout? The pear trees by me seem weak at the point where large branches attach to the trunk, and I've even seen trunks 'split' as well. Only after being heavily weighted down by 'ice' in a storm.
Stay well buddy...
This is one . I tought it was a dead olive tree , then it got leaves and flowers ..
