This herb can be a useful addition to a tortoise's diet. It does, however, contain some oxalic acid (which binds with calcium and prevents the body from absorbing it), so as with all plants it should be fed as only one part of a larger, varied diet.
Although flowers are primarily white, they are sometimes flushed with pink.
