Free pack of seeds? Act Fast!

[J. James]

Ghostlike, I haunt the filthy pools of mud
For fortune tagged me with a gory name
While I was gulping mouthfuls of red blood.
I lack bones, arms, both feet, but all the same
I puncture fearful flesh with triforked nips,
and thus I heal with therapeutic lips.

What am I

Stinging nettle?

Round 2

Born in lush Farmland, Blooming on my own,
Bright blossoms on my crown are glowing gold.
I'm closed at sunset, then at dawn unfold,
So wise Greeks picked the name by which I'm known.

Dandelion Is a very close guess, As it was named by the Greek and does act mildly in the way described. But this is still incorrect. Sorry keep trying!
