Persicaria strigosa habit1
Native, warm season, perennial herb. Stems are creeping, prostrate to decumbent and slender, with strongly retrorse-strigose hairs. Leaves are hastate or sagittate, 4–6.5 cm long, 15–32 mm wide, with sparse antrorse to occasionally retrorse hairs mostly restricted to veins and margins. Flowerheads have 2–4 branches with small terminal subglobose flower clusters 5–10 mm long with bracts crowded at end of branches. Perianth segments 3.0–3.7 mm long, pink or white. Common in coastal regions (less so on the South Coast). In open swamps. Not eaten by livestock.
