What is another word for false ragweed?
Pronunciation: [fˈɒls ɹˈaɡwiːd] (IPA) 
False ragweed is a common name for several plant species that have a similar appearance to ragweed but do not produce the same allergenic pollen. Some synonyms for false ragweed include marsh elder, rough-leaved ragweed, and western ragweed. These plants are often found in wetlands, disturbed areas, and along roadsides. False ragweed can be both a beneficial and problematic plant in different ecosystems. It provides food and habitat for wildlife, but it can also compete with other native plants and reduce biodiversity. The key differences between false ragweed and true ragweed are in their leaves, stem, and flowers, making it important to correctly identify these plants.
