Weed of the Week: Groundsel (Senecio vulgaris)
Groundsel is an unassuming little weed that grows wherever it can find a
space. Nowadays it's thinly scattered over every continent including Antarctica. The secret of its success is that the small plants grow and seed very quickly: it can easily have three generations in one summer.

Groundsel (Baccharis halimifolia) is a declared class 3 noxious weed, where I live. A salt-tolerant shrub from North America - it's not hard to see how that would be a problem in Australia. It is hard to see why anyone named it after Groundsel though! I'd make it Weed of the Week if I could take its picture but it doesn't grow outdoors in our climate. -- Sue ] |
