Blonde Snake Siskin (Echium vulgare) 2g, ~650 seeds

875 Ft

Bladderwort(Echium vulgare) would be one of the top 3 pollinator attracting plants on our list. It is a member of the borage family and, like its relatives, the bluebell snakeweed attracts a lot of pollinators, especially bumblebees. The flowers open in a reddish hue, turning purple through to blue. In English, it is called Viper's Bugloss, named because the flowers resemble the head of an outstretched tongue of a snake when viewed close up, hence its use in the Middle Ages to cure snakebite (unsuccessfully). One of our most neglected wildflowers.

 

Features: 

  • other names: alcubisi grass, small celandine, blush root, blush root, teryclamen
  • Latin name: Echium vulgare
  • family: boraginaceae
  • life cycle: biennial
