RE: A guest from the past
I had to google a LOT to discover what snyt is. I think you mean what we call goutweed (apparently it is good for gout) or bishop's weed/ground elder. It is used as a groundcover here and people hate it because it is invasive. HAHA! I had no idea that it was edible, but good to know!

I had to give a link...
according to the photo and description, you will understand exactly what kind of herb it is and what its healing properties are.
This is really a storeroom of health))
Yes, this is the plant I know. ONLY the one we usually plant is the variegated variety. As I said, we mainly plant then as an ornamental. I am going to look for some plain ones.
The most useful is the usual dream. But it is better to collect it young. The leaves of an adult plant become quite stiff.
I am going to look for the plain variety. I have lots of land that needs ground cover and this plant grows very well here. Ha ha all the Russian plants grow so well here! I need to research more types of plants from Siberia to see what I may incorporate into my garden.
Canada and Russia are in the same latitudes. There are a lot of similarities in vegetation and fauna :)
Yes, there are lots of similarities, but not all the flora and fauna is the same. Some stuff from Russia becomes invasive here and I assume that it is the same with Canadian plants in Russia. Do you know of any bad plants that have come from Canada?
I am not fond of plants, but I can assume that some may behave aggressively in a new environment.
At one time, Sosnovsky's hogweed was brought out for livestock feed. He never went to feed, but began to seize the land.
