Harvest burdock root yourself
Typically, burdocks are biennial plants. The spherical, pink inflorescence with flower heads only develops in the second year.
Burdocks are not only known for the fact that their fruit heads tend to stick to clothing or animal fur. Its strong taproot, which extends up to one meter into the ground, also makes the burdock so special.
With a bit of luck, you can also find the burdock in your home. They are often found in places where more demanding plants do not like it. Roadsides, fences, walls, dams or rubble dumps are some examples. Autumn is the optimal time to harvest the long, fleshy roots of burdock.
You can also cultivate burdock in your own garden. A sunny to partially shaded spot is ideal for the plant. Basically, the plant is very robust and easy to care for.
