(Limaria vulgaris Mill)
The flower is a 1 inch long bright yellow to pale cream corolla, with a bearded and orange throat. The seed is disk-shaped, dark brown to black, 1/12 inch in diameter with a papery circular wing.
This is an aggressive invader of range lands, displacing desirable grasses. It has been reported to be mildly poisonous to livestock. Yellow toadflax can also be found along roadsides, waste places, small grain fields and disturbed sites. An extensive root system makes this plant difficult to control.
