Introduced, cool-season, annual, erect or ± prostrate herb, 10-20 cm tall. Leaves are narrow-lanceolate to narrow-obovate to spathulate, 1.5–3 cm long, 2–8 mm wide, apex obtuse to acute and mucronate, base slightly stem-clasping, both surfaces white-tomentose. Heads woolly at the base, 1.5–3 mm diam., in axillary clusters forming a leafy panicle, subtended by several ovate to obovate hyaline bracts. Flowers in spring and early summer. Grows in disturbed areas.
Occasional and locally abundant in the Bozeman area, prostrate pigweed like other species in the genus requires sites with high levels of disturbance, such as this site that was recently landscaped. The long attenuate spine-tipped flower bracts that surpass the length of the tepals enclosed distinguish this species from the similar Amaranthus blitoides. This site lies along West Harrison Street on the Montana State University campus, Bozeman.

Introduced, cool-season, annual, low-growing, hairless legume, with prostrate to ascending stems. Leaves have 3 leaflets, each oblong to ovate and 8-16 mm long. The central leaflet has a distinctly longer stalk than the lateral ones. Flowerheads are dense, rounded clusters (8-15 mm long) of 20-40 yellow, inflated, pea-like flowers. Pods are oblong and 1-2 mm long. Flowering is in spring. A native of Europe, the Mediterranean and West Asia, it is found in pastures, woodlands and roadsides; although more common on roadsides than in grazed pastures. Usually found on coarse-textured low-fertility soils where groundcover is reduced. Generally only found at low densities in pastures. Provides good quality feed, but it is not very productive.

Native, cool-season to yearlong green, perennial, erect or prostrate, hairy herb to 60 cm tall; more or less woody at the base. Basal leaves are petiolate, soon withering; cauline leaves are wedge-shaped to spathulate, 8–40 mm long, sparsely hairy and sessile; margins toothed towards apex. Heads 6–20 mm diam., solitary or in loose leafy cymes of 2 or 3; involucral bracts scabrous-hairy and with scattered glandular hairs; receptacle conical, without scales. Disc florets are tubular and yellow; ray florets are white, blue or purple and 3–9 mm long. Achenes have a pappus of 2–4 rigid barbed awns, with 2–4 basal scales. Widespread on a wide variety of soil types and situations.
Introduced warm-season perennial prostrate ephemeral or perennial herb. Stems are softly hairy, to 60 cm long and root at the nodes. Leaves are stalked, obovate to circular, 0.5–5 cm long, mostly hairless. Flowerheads are oval, to 15 mm long and 10 mm wide. Bracts are lanceolate and pungent pointed. A native o South America, it is a widespread weed of bare ground and disturbed areas.
Introduced, cool-season, annual, erect or ± prostrate herb, 10-20 cm tall.

Heads woolly at the base, 1.5–3 mm diam., in axillary clusters forming a leafy panicle, subtended by several ovate to obovate hyaline bracts. Flowers in spring and early summer. Grows in disturbed areas.
Introduced warm-season perennial tufted, sometimes stoloniferous, C4 grass; stems are erect, geniculate to prostrate, relatively brittle, to 70 cm tall and with a ring of glands below the nodes. Leaf blades are soft and sheaths are hairless or with tubercle-based hairs (i.e. with small wart-like outgrowths at their base); there are rigid 2-4 mm long hairs either side of the ligule. Flowerheads are contacted panicles at first, becoming open panicles at maturity and 8-27 cm long; lower branches are whorled, hairs are only found in the axils of the main stem and the lower ones sometimes have a brown ring of glands below them. Spikelets are 4-5.5 mm long and 1-1.5 mm wide, usually 3-7 flowered, flattened, unawned and with lemmas 1.5-1.8 mm long. Flowers in summer and autumn. A native of Africa, it grows on well-drained gravel to sandy loams in disturbed and overgrazed areas, especially roadsides. Found as far south as Wellington. Thought to have been brought in as a seed contaminant of Eragrostis curvula, it is spreading along roadsides on the north west slopes. Of no importance to livestock as it currently mostly grows on roadsides. Grows in same habitat as Eragrostis curvula and Eragrostis pilosa and often mistaken for these species.
You often see this plant growing through mossy banks of tracks, I liked how prolific the fruiting was on this one. You can't eat the berries as far as I know.

Min. Corey Brown, out, Like a Light. Under the anointing she decided to lay prostrate in God's presence.
Prostrate to erect suckering perennial herb. Tangled stems, branching at base, curly white hairs on new growth, becoming hairless.
Leaves usually recurved, narrow-lanceolate, 5–10 mm long, c. 2 mm wide at base, stalkless, sharply pointed, few hairs along lower 3/4 of margin.
Single axillary or terminal white flowers on long stalks, 5 petals deeply lobed, appearing to be 10 petals. Stamens 10. Sepals 5–9 mm long, margins scarious.
Flowering: August to December. Several early flowering specimens observed at this location in the Wild Dog Mountains.
A distinctive species because of its pungent, pointed leaves.

Brambles growing prostrate to the ground at a former school site. Nature reclaiming the old tarmac playground. Heavily frosted with the cold as sharp as the thorns on the bramble.
Notice on prostrate headstones warning "not to attempt to re-erect these memorials without the use (sic) of an approved memorial mason" all for "your own safety". Obviously an orgy of 'anti-vandalism' has been sweeping this Clevedon Church.
