Common hogweed low key.
It is a 90-150 cm tall (with outliers up to two metres), perennial plant, common along dykes and roads and in hay meadows. The plant is roughly hairy and has triple-finned to finned leaves. The stem is lacy and grooved. Common hogweed blooms from June to October with white flowers in polyhedral umbels. The under-standing ovary is two-lobed with two styles. The styles have a cushion at the base. The winged fruit is a two-part split fruit with single-seeded achenes.
Common hogweed is mainly found in nitrogen-rich, moist soil in both full sun and semi-shade. It grows on grasslands, woodlands, in forests and in weedy vegetation.
