@BLuOXide That's one of the "weeds" I hope to run across one day so I can add it to the garden. I like wild violet leaves to thicken things like soup, I hear mallow does it even better. Both are also supposed to make good cough syrups. They both do the thing okra does, that muciligenous stuff is good for coughs.
