Spermacoce Setidens Var. Linearifolia

Blueweed, scientifically known as Spermacoce setidens var. linearifolia, is a fascinating plant native to the southeastern United States. It is commonly found in moist, open habitats such as roadsides, fields, and woodland edges. This species belongs to the Rubiaceae family, which includes over 13,000 species of flowering plants. Its striking blue flowers appear in clusters, making it a visually appealing addition to natural landscapes. Despite its beauty, Blueweed is often overlooked due to its modest size and tendency to grow in disturbed areas.
