Bidens
Bidens
The Bidens genus consists of extremely versatile and resilient plants belonging to the Asteraceae family. In Brazil, Black-jack (Bidens pilosa) is widely known for its medicinal properties, while Bidens ferulifolia is a garden favorite for its bright yellow flowers that attract pollinators. Its seeds have characteristic hooks that attach to surfaces, facilitating dispersal.
