At last, after fighting a losing battle with the stuff. I have found a use
for it. My new rescued tortoise considers it a delicacy. It is his

favourite
grub next to dandelion and sow thistle. He pulls great swathes of it down
and chomps away with gusto all day long. Marvellous job. I am considering
hiring him out to keen gardeners at a reasonable cost and anticipate huge
demand.
Get your names down on the list now to avoid disappointment ;-)

Great. Now can you train him to eat ground elder?


Why? It makes a good green vegetable - try it sometime. The young leaves
are best, and before it has flowered. Later, cut the lot down and pick
the fresh growth.
