Looks rather like a dandelion.

That's right, can use it in salads, it's supposed to be good for arthritis.

I love dandelion salads! Did you know you can eat the flowers too and they are pretty good!

[Tess]

Lol! I'd love to hear the inside story on this one!

 

[XxDetrimentalxX]

Guess this tree. It is native to Southeast Asia, and the texture of the edible fruit is like a grape. The tree can reach up to 80 feet!

 

[Tess]

Is it a rambutan?

 

[XxDetrimentalxX]

Yes!

It's a myth but they are a duretic and it will make you wee more.

The French word [for dandelion] is pissenlit, which translates to "pee the bed." Dandelions are a diuretic and in fact they are as strong as some of the commercial products. The leaves, the flowers and the roots are edible.27 May 2016

Cleavers or sticky wicket because it sticks to things and climbs. Can cook it like spinach.
