Mouse-Ear Chickweed

The common name Mouse-ear, is because the leaves are oval and hairy, not unlike a mouse ear. The name Chickweed is because it is one of a group of plants used when making a food called Chick-starter, a food for baby chickens.
It is one of the largest of the Chickweeds.

Where I found it : in the lawn
