Scolymocephalus repens

Scolymocephalus repens, also known as the creeping groundsel, is a species of flowering plant in the dandelion family.

It has been traditionally used for its medicinal properties, including the ability to act as a diuretic and a laxative, due to its high content of sesquiterpene lactones.

The plant is believed to have various health benefits, such as reducing inflammation and aiding in the treatment of digestive issues.

Scolymocephalus repens can be prepared into herbal teas, infusions, or tinctures for internal use, and it is also used in topical applications for skin conditions.
