Sheep's sorrel - Rumex acetosa
Sheep's sorrel (Rumex acetosa) is a perennial plant that is part of the knotweed family (Polygonaceae). This versatile plant grows to a height of 10 to 60 cm and spreads via numerous long, underground runners.
The leaves, which reach a length of 3 to 7 cm, have a characteristic spike shape and vary from obovate to narrow linear. From May until deep into autumn, sheep's sorrel adorns itself with plumes that usually have a greenish hue, sometimes with a light red glow. In certain specimens, the plumes can even turn dark red, which provides a striking contrast in the landscape.

The young leaves of sheep's sorrel are edible and are valued for their fresh, sour taste, which is due to the oxalic acid present. They are not only used raw in salads, but also as a seasoning in meat dishes. In addition, the leaves are a rich source of nutrients. They contain significant amounts of vitamins such as A, B, C, D, K and E, and are particularly rich in carotenoids, with a content of 8 to 12%.
