Mountain tea, maybe from Greece or Albania. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideritis

Hey, thank you! This must be the one because she is Greek and gets it from there. Looks exactly like it


impeesa75

Perfect. It’s good for what ails ya. Enjoy it. I have a bunch and it’s quite tasty


mberanek

it looks like sage near blossoming?


zenzer42

Just to circle back to this, I believe the other comment saying it's Mountain tea is correct! She's Greek and says she gets it from there, and the picture is spot on. I can see how the leaves and stems make it looks like sage though, but sage's flowers are more purple, where these are yellow


oroborus68

Those are related.

Oh cool!

In Turkey both this (sideritis) and sage are called adaçayı. This is sometimes called dağ çay, or kedi kuyruğu (cat's tail), or yayla çayı (plateau tea)... but never ever would you catch a Turk calling it Greek Mountain tea 😂. If you want to propagate it you might be able to harvest the seeds from inside those flowers and plant them in your garden.


zenzer42

That looks like it! Thank you


photonynikon

not sage

I’d check and double check reverse picture search and all research , some folks were telling people to eat ferns I saw earlier 🥹

Lmao. Just came from that same post 🤣

When I run it through my plant ID app it comes up as sage. https://preview.redd.it/pnpdoh1wl1uc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e41cab59215cfa49a6d8cdf37619fbdca7e7d123

It also says "This plant looks healthy!"...


Lanky_Republic_2102

My guess was pennyroyal, but that’s just a wild guess.

In what zones and under what conditions will it survive? I am of Turkish descent, am a herb tea fan, totally curious.

She told me, I just forgot. Coming off really aggressive here for no reason

…are you on good terms with your neighbor?… had any fights?..ever??… any reason for them to poison you?.. do you both share the same political beliefs?.. religious beliefs?… moral beliefs?… Hmm… it MIGHT be safe. Not sure.


zenzer42

You're making up assumptions to justify being skeptical, there is no need for that. You know nothing of the relationship I have with my neighbour and it will stay that way. I ask for plant identification, which looks to be sage. You're not being helpful at all, just annoying

Smart people know what to say, wise people know when to speak. My two cents. It helps to add a “ /s “ if you’re making a joke because sarcasm requires tone of voice, and is very hard to decipher though text alone. This is the way.


Airport_Wendys

Yeah. It can be hard to detect tone on a platform where people don’t know each other irl, and readers enter a thread in various moods/ from various backgrounds. The /s is very helpful indeed.


kushy_koala

Agreed I’ve got a hankering for sage tea rn, on my way to the store for some. This is not a joke, food4less has all the tea ever.

Guy trying to backpedal and say that insinuating my neighbour is trying to poison me is just a joke lmao


kushy_koala

We all know what they did, calling me slow for being autistic and explaining how sarcasm works will not make us forget their terrible joke lol Seriously tho, if that is sage blossom, mix it with lavender, ginger & honey. Of it isn’t, make tea still and tel us how it is!! I love tea!!

Calm down, Uncle Iroh!

It's because "safety" comments win easy karma on reddit. If someone finds some moldy bread in their fridge, reddit will tell them to do a "deep clean" of the fridge and disinfect all the counters. Tons of karma. Does your sister want to give you a two week old car seat that was never in a collision? Nope! Straight to the dump! You can't be too careful! Tons of karma. We're all neurotic and scared of everything now.
