While they are distinctly second-weed stage species, they may be classed as transitional successionally between the early-weed stage and the second-weed stage when the latter is characterized by turfed plants, such as blue foxglove, sweet sage, and yarrow. Only a small portion of the herbage in this belt is relished by sheep. The feed is low in quality and unless cropped early in the season has practically no forage Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
