Round Sorrel ( Rumex scutatus)
Round sorrel is a perennial ground cover plant that does well along walkways or on rocky ground. This variety of sorrel is a tender green sometimes speckled with silver. Its small leaves with a tangy and slightly lemony taste, very popular with children, are very pleasant in salads, sandwiches or for concocting sauces. You can harvest the very tender young leaves which are excellent fresh, or the more mature ones which can be cooked like spinach. The leaves, once harvested, keep well by freezing.
