wierd!

I'm not particularly a flowery type of person but someone posed this question to me the other day and I thought it was quite tricky:

How is the herb hypericum more familiarly known?

the name rings a bell, but only cos I used to work in a shop which sold devices to help old people live longer.

Ginseng?

nope and nope

as a bit of a clue, it's more commonly thought of as a flower or weed even

daaiiissssyyyyy?

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Mon Jan 21, 2008 3:12 pm

nope

highlight below for a further clue

both a toxic and invasive weed. It replaces useful vegetation to the extent of making productive land unviable or acts as an alien species in natural ecosystems. Ingestion by livestock can cause photosensitization, central nervous system depression, spontaneous abortion, and can lead to death

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Mon Jan 21, 2008 3:55 pm

nope and nope

(despite the issues in the previous clue this plant does have medicinal uses)

Are you meant to look things up on the net for FC quiz answers? or is that just cheating?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 4:17 pm

that is cheating. it is up to whoever asks the question to give clues if the audience is too thick.

i'm too thick for this one. herb, weed, medicinal, kills cattle... mint?
