I added a sorrel plant to my garden and found this database entry for garden sorrel:
Garden Sorrel (Rumex acetosa).

However, my plant has leaves whose length is about 3-4 times the width, in contrast to the images in the database. Those leaves are not much longer than they are wide.The photo on the plant tag shows the longer-than-wide leaves:

Please direct me to the database entry for my sorrel plant.

Thank you.

Your tag lacks a botanical name, so how did you identify it as Garden Sorrel? Do you suppose it might be French Sorrel (Rumex scutatus)?

It does look like French Sorrel, Zuzu. Thank you.
