We took a walk around his herb store on east Martin Luther King blvd in Tampa. He pointed out a common yard weed with small white flowers, called chickweed. Davies says it can be used for weightloss if taken in a green salad or dried as a tea. Davies also had planted aloe, proven to help heal burns. Behind it was a familiar wild flower, the periwinkle .
Recent research shows it has anti-cancer properties.
And a few feet away he found bit of dark spongey leaves. It's called a milkweed. Davies says you can use it for stomach disorders. Before you go exploring in your own yard.,be careful you have to know what you're doing. Some plants can be harmful.
