barba-de-bode

<em>Tragopogon porrifolius</em>, commonly known as common salsify, vegetable oyster, or purple salsify, is a biennial or perennial herbaceous plant in the family Asteraceae. Native to Mediterranean Europe and western Asia, it has been widely cultivated as a root vegetable since antiquity and has naturalized extensively across Europe, the Americas, Australia, and parts of Asia. The plant typically grows on roadsides, waste ground, dry grasslands, and disturbed soils in sunny locations. In its first year it produces a rosette of grass-like, grey-green leaves; in the second year it produces tall, branched stems bearing showy purple flower heads that resemble large dandelions, typically 5–7 centimeters in diameter. The edible taproot has a pale, somewhat oyster-like flavor when cooked, and the young shoots and flower buds are also edible. Common salsify is not currently evaluated on the IUCN Red List. Pollination is primarily by bees and other insects visiting the flowers, which open only in morning sunlight. Seeds are dispersed by wind via a feathery pappus. The species favors well-drained, moderately fertile soils and can be found in both rural and urban habitats. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body measurements, and detailed ecological diet data remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases.

Tragopogon crocifolius e uma planta com flores da familia das margaridas (Asteraceae) que produz cabecas florais de cor acafrao a purpura em caules delgados com folhas em forma de gramiinea em habitats abertos e secos. E encontrada em regioes mediterraneas, pradarias rochosas e terrenos perturbados do sul da Europa e oeste da Asia. Classificada como Vulneravel, esta especie enfrenta ameacas de perda de habitat, superpastoreio e conversao do solo em sua area de distribuicao mediterranea.
