Yellow Wood-Sorrel

I found three flowers yesterday, and all are edible. This is a small flower ... about one inch across. It is also known as Sour Grass or Pickle Plant and I am assuming this is because of its lemony or sour taste. It is also called Fairy Bells. It is sensitive to direct sunlight ... the leaves only open in the shade, if direct sunlight reaches them they sort of collapse back on their stems.


Where I found it : In a friends yard
