_77 Bishop’s Weed (Ground Elder) "Ground Elder is sometimes referred to as bishop\u2019s weed or goutweed and is commonly found in woodland and verges. It originally comes from the continent, possibly from the Romans and is best eaten as a green before it produces its crown of delicate white flower. As well as offering a nice carrot and parsley flavour to your meals, its diuretic properties give relief from gout. Although highly invasive, we feel that if you can\u2019t beat it, eat it."
