Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara) is a perennial herb in the Asteraceae (sunflower) family native to North Africa, Europe, and parts of Asia. Coltsfoot is the only recognized species in the Tussilago genus.
However, over 24 other species[1] have been considered part of this genus at one time or another. This perennial plant resembles a Dandelion when it flowers in spring.
