Shepherd’s bag, 80 grams
80-gram Shepherd’s Bag by Jacob Hooy.
The plant is regarded as a weed (a plant that is undesirable in a particular place) when it grows in ornamental gardens, vegetable gardens, grassland and fields. The Dutch name is derived from the heart-shaped, 6–9 mm long bracts, which resemble the pouches formerly used by shepherds and farmers. In common parlance, the species is also known as ‘spoon thief’, ‘pursewort’, ‘pouchwort’, ‘bloodwort’, ‘duck’s feet’, ‘goose’s tongues’, ‘spoons and forks’, ‘mother’s purse’ and ‘garden spoon’.
