Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Old Man's Beard on Bredon Hill Large clumps of Old Man's Beard (Travellers Joy) can be found all over Bredon Hill because the plant grows best on alkaline soils. More easily spotted in autumn because of the white seed heads.
The French name for Old Mans Beard is herbe aux gueux the beggars or rascals herb. Beggars were said to use its acrid sap to irritate the skin to give it a sore and ulcerated look in order to induce sympathy and a donation from passers by. Don't try this at home. |
