Description

Common Sorrel (Rumex acetosa) grows in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, woodland rides, road verges, and sand dunes. It produces red or green flowers on long, slender spikes. The plant is an important larval food source for the Small Copper butterfly. Its tall flowering stems and arrow-shaped leaves make it a striking addition to meadows and wildflower-rich landscapes. Rumex acetosa also supports pollinators, adding both ecological value and visual interest to natural habitats.
