Chrysodium Vulgare Var. Minus

Lesser yellowweed, scientifically known as Chrysodium vulgare var. minus, is a small, inconspicuous plant commonly found in disturbed soils across temperate regions. It belongs to the Asteraceae family, which includes daisies and sunflowers, and is characterized by its delicate yellow flowers and narrow leaves. Despite its modest appearance, it plays a vital role in supporting local pollinators and maintaining ecological balance. The plant is often overlooked due to its unassuming nature, yet it is an important indicator of soil health and environmental change. Its resilience and adaptability make it a fascinating subject for ecological study and conservation efforts.
