English Plantain

I once read that this was also know as White Man's Foot Print by the North American Indians. They gave it this name .... if I remember correctly, because it came with the early settlers from Europe and it appeared where ever they settled or where they had traveled through. If you saw this plant growing you would know that the White Man had been there. It may have come in the hooves of the livestock that was brought here or plantings they brought. It is not native but it is nibbled on by some of our native animals.

Where I found it : in the yard
