Excluding Sales Tax
Common Ragweed is a 1' to 2' tall native annual with small inconspicuous flowers found in all of the lower 48 states. It will grow in dry to moist soils and part shade or full sun. It profusely self-seeds and easily establishes. It can be aggressive but is easily controlled by pulling the young plants since it is an annual. Goldenrod is often blamed, but it is Ragweed pollen that is the cause of much of our hay fever allergy. The seeds of Ragweed are extremely high in food value and are a very important food source for songbirds and upland game birds like Bobwhite Quail.
Prices listed are based on pure live seed weight, not bulk weight. You are only paying for viable seed.
