Recently discovered your channel, I live on a long narrow "in city green belt" with a VERY tiny creek that I have been working on for almost 40 years, building rock step dams strengthened by the roots of Crack Willow trees. In a roughly quarter mile stretch, I've made over 20 ponds and planted over 250 trees, stopping erosion and turning a gully covered with thistle and willow brush into "a piece of country" in the city that people go out of their way to enjoy the bike path running through it. At times I was discouraged by how destructive little boys can be when they play, but the Crack Willow roots would prevail and make the step dams indestructible and trees would shade the water to keep it clear in the summer. Over the years I've struggled with many strange "weeds" and in the last decade Cleavers have invaded causing me to "give up" in my old age, your video on them was an eye opener and although I can't do much out there anymore, I have peace of mind knowing that many of these "weeds" are food and medicine and I can just "let it be". I've planted apple, cherry and peach trees plus a huge raspberry patch, the little ponds look so natural you can't tell that they are manmade. It's almost priceless to be able to look out my back window at "a creek and woods" instead of a row of houses less than a 100 yards away. I appreciate your love and understanding of plants and sharing your knowledge, how different it is now from even 10 years ago to be able to find information on anything one is wondering about.

I really enjoy your videos. Love your out look on life. We need that in the states. Your plants and ours are very similar.

We are out in the wilderness with my little girl in Latvia 🇱🇻 and we've been picking bilberries and heal-all and wild strawberries and saw a lot of ox eye daisies. Found a bench in the middle of the woods to sit down after all the berry picking and see if we should pick some ox eye daisies, too... so we searched on RU-vid and so glad we found your channel. We will keep watching and leaving likes and comments. Now we are going to pick some daisy flowers, too. Greetings from Latvia 🇱🇻 you're awesome 👌 👏 💐🏆😚

I just love the way you tell stories. Thank you.

Loving the sound of larks in the background :)

My garden is full of these! We grew them from seed because they are beautiful ❤I never knew they were so useful and beneficial, let a lone edible and medicinal! Thank you ☀️ 🌼 ❤

GoOd wisdom about being patient and playing guitar 👍👍 much needed in today's chaotic world. Is there any poisonous lookalikes to this plant? Thanks Aidan

These grow Iike crazy at the edge of my property. This will be my 2nd spring in this house and I can't wait to see these guys pop up now. I discovered how much fun it is to harvest and process stuff with my garden wonders, including the calendula Salve I made last year. Looking forward to making daisy salve and tea!

I've loved dog daisies since I was a child 60 years ago but never knew they had medicinal value.

It's beautiful and edible! Can't beat that! Thanks for the info!

Brilliant video, thank you. I have them growing in my garden, large swathes of them. They used to be in the fields around my house but now they're in my garden telling me to be patient. I love your highly informative and engaging manner, I've dabbled in herbal remedies for many years [over 40!] and you have a way of engaging the viewer. I'm going to eat them, make herbal syrup and maybe even a tincture.

Love your Philosophy on life in these present times, makes me think we should take a step back or two. Again, some very interesting info, on one of the plants that grow here. Thank you for showing us all matey. John.

Beautiful 🌼🌿 Thank you so very much. We have a field behind our house where lots of this is growing and my teenage daughter thinks they are beautiful. I'm so happy to learn about their uses. I love your channel ✨❤️✨

Hello i am from Indonesia, good luck 🙏

Hi Home is where the heart is...I've just found your videos! Fab. I'm a flower remedy practitioner and am loving your knowledge. I have an entire garden full of ox eye daisy. I'm off to pick some and dry some. Great work. I'll be chugging my way through your videos. Keep it up guys.

Thank you very much for the video 👍👍 we have lots of oxide daisies here in the Sierra Nevada mountains of Northern California. When I camp it's grounding to be foraging the same daisies that I've seen the deer munching on 🌼🦌🌼🦌🌼

Loved this 🌼💓🌼💓🌼

Such a beautiful video (apart from pixilating but that was probably my signal!) I just love what you say at the end about being present and patient and being really in this beautiful world! I'm trying to create a wildflower meadow and having problems getting a decent amount of seeds, especially ox eye daisy. Got huge virulent grasses in our meadow which choke everything. Need some advice. Can you recommend anyone please. Love, blessings and happiness for you and your family in 2022. Xxx 💖🙏💖🌟🌟🌟

I have some growing in the garden, ill dry them for tea. Thanks for that info . Have a nice weekend you and your family.

Great video thanks does it help for sleep like normal chamomile?

If you have stomach pain or gas or gastric, you need to eat them every single day they will fix you soon as possible is good for your head for your body for your all diabetic for everything

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love your video. I have lots growing in my garden. I am going to try the tea but do you have any 'recipe' for the balm? Thanks x

In another video of yours, you mentioned using common daisy as an arnica alternative; is that true of ox eye daisy? Can it be used like arnica for bruises and sprains?

Do you use just the petals or whole flower head?
