Strawberry pigweed, also known as redroot pigweed, is a common weed found in gardens and crop fields. The plant is characterized by its reddish stem, long and narrow leaves, and clusters of tiny green flowers. While it is considered a nuisance by most gardeners and farmers, it has several synonyms that reflect its unique appearance and characteristics. Some of the common synonyms for strawberry pigweed include redroot amaranth, wild beet, tumbleweed, and pigweed amaranth. Whether it is called by its common name or under one of its synonyms, control measures should be taken to prevent it from spreading and competing with desirable plants for nutrients and resources.
