Coltsfoot received its name because the leaves of the plant resemble a colt's foot. The herb is also known as Horse Foot, Foalswort, Horsehoof, Bull's Foot, Ass's Foot and by several other names. Because the leaves and flowers contain mucilage, they are used to make infusions, washes and poultices to sooth minor skin irritations.
