The picture I took were not very clear for showing the alternate leaf arrangement and the hairs on the stem and leaves. I will go back over the next couple of weeks and take more pictures which you will be able to find below.

The leaves are edible (raw or cooked) when gathered in April or May before the flowering
stem appears. At this time, any slight bitterness can be reduced with cooking. Changes
to cooking water can reduce bitterness if the leaves are picked later in the Spring
after flowering. The rosette of leaves produced in the Fall tends to be mild and
can be collected into the very late Fall. The picture I took were not very clear for showing the alternate leaf arrangement and the hairs on the stem and leaves. I will go back over the next couple of weeks and take more pictures which you will be able to find below. |
