Qaikus for wild plants
Campanula
The supermarket sells you
The second one of you is free
Here you are priceless
Hollyhock
Too big for your own good
In high summer
Go out of my way
Yellow Corydalis
Your flowers droop
depressing
But you grow high on buildings
Male Fern
Where it's dark & damp
There I find you
Evoking forest
Dandelion
Everywhere you can be found
Just like humans
But benign
Common Foxglove
For a witch herb
You seem very optimistic
In a cardiac arrest kinda way
Giant Hogweed
Eradicated & destroyed
But I love you
Like I would love a city tiger
Ginkgo Biloba
For years I ignored you
You are just like any other tree
But not really
Viola
Little viola - garden escape
I admire your tenacity
And no more
Comfrey
Kokkie dug you up your roots and had me taste it
Your name is apt
Your Dutch name
Sea-Buckthorn
We never met but I saw you on TV
A chef using you
Never progresses in the BBC's Great British Menu
