We're strolling with shovels along Furness this summer with a special focus on Burdock. Today we'll work south of Maryland Ave on both sides of the bike path to the RR pedestrian bridge.
Burdock is a non-native (edible) plant that grows a tall flower stalk during its 2nd growing season. Each flower turns into a big "bur" with lots of seeds. For more info about Arctium lappa and A. minus - see https://www.minnesotawildflowers.info/flower/great-burdock.
