The plant: Mouse-ear Hawkweed (Hieracium pilosella)
Mouse-ear hawkweed is a small perennial herbaceous plant from the Asteraceae family, found throughout Europe. Its name pilosella derives from the Latin pilosus (hairy), referring to the dense hairs covering the leaves. The plant is easily recognised by its single yellow flower heads on slender, tall stems and its basal leaf rosettes with a silvery underside.
It grows wild in dry meadows, along footpaths and on rocky ground, from lowlands to mountain areas. It has been known and valued in the European herbal tradition for centuries.
The flowering tops are harvested during bloom, when the active compound content is at its peak.
