[puma-news] sulfur buckwheat

Erioganum umbellatum, in the buckwheata, or Polygonaceae, family, is
blooming now. Familiar domestic cousins in this family are rhubarb and
buckwheat.
Polygonaceae plants can cause photosensitization and, according to
Weber, can cause fatal sunburn in white cattle.

Best,
J
