- Ox-Eye daisies are found sporadically throughout North America and are often found abundantly along roadsides, in vacant lots, fields, and meadows. When mature the flowering stems are two to three feet tall. This perennial has from one to ten stems each with at least one white and yellow daisy flower. The stems are ridged with alternate, widely-spaced toothed leaves. The foliage has a pungent Yarrow-Chamomile scent when crushed. The flowers have a bitter flavor.
Usnea, also known as old man’s beard, is not a plant but a lichen—a mutually symbiotic relationship between an algae and a fungus. The entire lichen is used. Usnea looks like long, fuzzy strings hanging from trees in North American and European forests. The particular species of Usnea common to our area is a medium-sized tufted shrub lichen that is pale yellowish green in color. It is highly branched with numerous short side branches that are reinforced by a tough white central cord. Usnea grows over trees and shrubs, preferring old growth forest conifers in shady areas.
Sweet Cicely is one of the first herbs to appear in spring. It grows in various parts of the Rocky Mountains on low-lying moist lands, and flowers during May and June. Its leaves resemble those of the carrot. The spring umbels of the Sweet Cicely are pale yellow to greenish yellow. The sweet-scented flowers are hermaphroditic (have both male and female organs) and the plant is self-fertile. By summer the flowers have matured into long, thin, and angular dark seeds that taste like licorice. The fairly upright and thick roots have a strong scent similar to root beer with a spicy sweet flavor that leaves a tingling aftertaste.
