Everything about The Green Alkanet totally explained
The
Green Alkanet (also
Pentaglottis,
Evergreen Bugloss and
Alkanet) is a bristly,
perennial plant growing to approximately 60cm (24") to 90cm (36") in height usually in damp or shaded places and often close to buildings. The Green Alkanet flowers in spring and early summer and can be used in culinary preparations such as foods and drinks.
The Green Alkanet originated from
France and the
Iberian Peninsula and was brought to
Britain for the red dye which can be extracted from its roots. Subsequently, the plant spread to the wild and is known to have naturalised throughout Europe and some coastal regions of
North America. The plant can cause mild
nettle-like stings to some individuals. Its deep
taproots make it a very difficult plant to eradicate; it'll regrow from any parts left behind in the soil.
