Outsidepride Plantain Common - 5000 Seeds

Common Plantain (Plantago major rosularis) - The flowers of Common Plantain are shaped like small green cabbage heads. Plants grow 12inches tall when in full bloom when grown from herb seeds. The foliage is low growing and green. The name 'Rosularis' means rose-like referring to the look of the flower heads which are shaped like double roses. Common Plantain will self-seed readily by dropping its seeds and forming new Plantain herbs the following spring. The leaves of this Plantago plant are edible and used in herbal medicine, but can be somewhat tough. The taste is that of very bitter salad greens with a lingering aftertaste not unlike spinach. Younger leaves are recommended as they are more tender. The sinews from the broadleaf plantain are very pliable and tough when fresh and/or wetted, and can be used to make small cords or braiding. When dry the sinews harden, but also become more brittle.
