Rapuntium Strictum
Rapunzel's weed, scientifically known as Rapuntium strictum, is a flowering plant native to southern Europe and western Asia. It is characterized by its upright growth and clusters of small, yellow flowers that bloom in late spring. The plant thrives in disturbed soils and is often found along roadsides and in cultivated fields. Due to its rapid growth and ability to spread easily, it is considered an invasive species in many regions. Despite its reputation as a weed, it has historical and ecological significance that warrants further study.
