| Annual broomweed can be found on prairies, rocky slopes, and roadsides in the South Texas Plains and the Edwards Plateau. It grows in poor caliche and dry calcareous soils. It grows 1 to 3 feet tall and is multi-branched in the upper two-thirds of the plant. The stems are covered with many narrow leaves, giving it the appearance of a bushy plant. The small yellow flower heads consist of about 8 ray flowers and many disk flowers. Annual Broomweed blooms between July and October. | |
