193/366: Pineapple Weed (+1 in a note)
Have you ever pulled the petals off of a daisy? This flower looks a lot like that natually! These hardy little flowers grow where nothing else will and to be honest, I never even bothered looking closely at them until finally I got a camera with a macro lens. Suddenly this odd flower turned out to be quite beautiful indeed!
Here's some information that I wrote to go with another picture I took (which I've added in a note above)
Pineapple Weed gets its name for the smell it emits when crushed and some Native Americans used crushed flowers for perfume! This plant is native to Asia and the Pacific Northwest but is an invasive weed in other parts of the U.S. and Europe. It's edible and also can be used as a tea , which will have a pineapple essence to it. Pineapple Weed is related to Chamomile and is sometimes used as a sedative and, oddly enough, as a treatment for intestinal worms! (Ewww!) It's also used as an insect repellant. (Note: some people who are sensitive to the Aster family or ragweed may be allergic to this plant.)
